Summary: 5 Stars
I am using the CVS brand comparable product of orange flavor sugar free fiber supplement/laxative and it has helped me tremendously with my loose bowel movements. I have increased my fiber intake and I am also drinking lactose free 2% Valio milk (tastes great)or almond milk (Silk brand tastes better than long shelf life Almond Dream). Drinking milk and eating ice cream seemed to be upsetting my digestive system. Cheese doesn't seem to bother me. What I have found using the Metamucil comparable product is that I feel less agitated and even though I still have frequency of bowel movements in the morning, they are more solid, and as a result, my digestive system seems calm and I feel more energized. Also I have little or no bloating. I wish that I could say that I've lost weight, but I haven't yet - that will obviously take more work and additional diet modifications and exercise due to my perimenopausal condition. My goal is to get at least 25 grams of fiber a day. Metamucil does not seem to worsen loose bowel movements even though it is a laxative - it really seems to help with forming solid stools that are easy to pass. I drink Metamucil at bedtime and once or twice during the day along with other whole grain fibers or legumes and it seems to be a good start towards improving my overall feeling of wellbeing. I drink Lifeway plain and flavored kefir as a great tasting probiotic. (has 3 grams inulin fiber) I also eat toasted Mestemacher whole grain bread almost everyday and sometimes twice a day (also available on Amazon and has 6 grams of whole grain fiber wheat free per slice). Other than that, I have not changed my diet at all. I have also incorporated eating Metamucil wafers, but not as much recently. If you eat them too much, you may grow tired of the taste and need to take a break as I am doing. I recommend that you eat them along with a warm drink such as tea or coffee. (see my review of the wafers - can be subscription ordered from Amazon for significant savings)
Back to this product - if you add a heaping teaspoon to a relatively shallow glass with a rounded bottom (a thick glass goblet), and then quickly stir it up and drink it, you should be able to get most of the powder dissolved with little effort. I then quickly rinse the glass. It is an easy and quick process and in no way do you feel that you could choke on the mixture. (one of my fears of psyllium husk fiber) Keep in mind, however, that you may experience some cramping and discomfort early on incorporating Metamucil and adding fiber to your diet - especially if your diet has been void of fiber. And take note - salad and many vegetables do not have as much fiber as you'd think. Start reading labels for fiber content. Cooked oatmeal is also a great addition.
I hope that this helps those of you looking for a way to feel better and not have your urge to go (especially in the morning) and the anxiety it causes run your life. Feel Better!
