What is Fiber? Fiber is the part of food that is not digested. Proteins, fats, and carbohydrates are almost entirely absorbed in the small intestines; fiber passes through to the large intestine virtually unchanged. Fiber helps modulate cholesterol levels, facilitates bowel transit, acts as a bulking agent- absorbing toxins and promoting easier elimination, and helps to regulate blood sugar levels. While the US Government recommends 25-30 grams of fiber per day, many doctors recommends 50-60 grams per day. The average American consumes on an average of only 10 grams! What makes Fiber Formula different? Most fiber products swell, gel, and "turn to cement" almost immediately after mixing with liquid. If they do this in a glass, imagine what they do in your intestinal system! Fiber Formula offers a precise combination of 100% pure psyllium, soothing slippery elm, and marshmallow root. There are also over 20 grams of dairy-free acidophilus. The blend of ingredients provides the fibrous bulk needed to improve digestion, eliminative, and metabolic processes while gently sweeping, cleansing, and toning the entire gastrointestinal tract. |
