    Re: Induction Question

    Welcome to the Board!

    These are the ingredients in Fiber Choice:
    Inulin (a natural vegetable fiber), Sorbitol, Cornstarch, Cellulose, Dextrose (Adds a trivial amount of sugar), Citric Acid, Magnesium Stearate, Natural & Artificial Flavors & Colors
    Technically cornstarch would only make Fiber Choice okay for OWL Rung 9. And since it contains a tiny amount of dextrose (sugar), you'd need count it towards your daily sweeteners (limited to 3 servings/packets per day).

    Instead of Fiber Choice, I would rather take something like flaxseed meal or psyllium husks (sugar free, of course) or wheat bran, which are the ones recommended in DANDR. These you could also "hide" as ingredients in foods, instead of having to swallow/chew a pill.

      I would recommend flaxseed too.. And I would also recommend during induction staying away from anything that contains sugar alcohols.

      Good luck
