Metamucil Clear and Natural Clear-Mixing Powder, 34 Count
Customer Reviews of Metamucil Clear and Natural Clear-Mixing Powder, 34 CountCustomer Review: It's good but too much can cause stomach pain
Too much inulin, which is what Fibersure now known as Clear & Natural is, can cause severe stomach pains and in me, it also caused back pains. Inulin is in a lot of processed foods and I already got it in Yoplait Yoplus so taking it once more, note not the 3 x a day Metamucil recommends, caused me occasional stomach cramps and daily back pain which I didn't connect with the fiber at all. Then one day I took a second dose & that night had pains very severe which made me go out on the internet looking for info. I found a study just out in July, 2010 which confirmed it can cause stomach pain in some people. I've completely quit taking Clear & Natural because I love the yogurt and that's enough for me. I just know there are other people like me taking it & hurting and not connecting the dots.
