Metamucil Psyllium Fiber Smooth Texture Powder Canister Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Metamucil is a great way to get added fiber. The orange sugar-free smooth texture version is less gritty than the original texture. The orange flavor is pleasant and goes down easily. I take it regularly myself to keep regular and it works just as it should. And it has the added benefit of being good for my cholesterol.
Note: Different Metamucil powder formulations have different instructions for mixing. Some doses are measured by teaspoons and some are tablespoons. This particular formulation is rounded teaspoon. Check the label carefully.
A FEW THINGS TO REMEMBER
* A good rule of thumb is not to take fiber at the same time as other medicines as they may bind to the fiber and not get absorbed. Take your other medicines at least 2 hours apart from the Metamucil.
* Mix with a nice tall glass of water. You might want to drink some extra water afterwards to wash it down. If you fail to heed the water warning, you risk choking or getting completely plugged up -- the exact opposite of what you are trying to accomplished.
* Don't expect immediate relief. Use it every day for a few days.
* The gas problem will eventually go away. Start low and increase fiber intake slowly to help with this problem.
* Wash your glass out immediately or else it will stick to your glass and be difficult to remove.
* Fill the glass with water and then add the Metamucil. If you do it the other way around, you may have a big clump on the bottom of your glass that doesn't dissolve.
WHO SHOULDN'T TAKE METAMUCIL?
* Anyone who cannot drink the required amount of water.
* Anyone who has trouble swallowing.
* Anyone who has a bowel obstruction.
It may seem strange at first since Metamucil is labeled a laxative, but it can also be used for chronic diarrhea. It works by absorbing water and thereby adding bulk to the stool. Bulky stools move faster down the intestines. Because Metamucil absorbs water, it does not cause diarrhea but rather can help it.
As always, if the change in bowel movement is recent and doesn't improve, a physician should be contacted.
