Re: Metemucil
i take Konsyl which is safe for diabetics and sug free.. i usually get it from Walmart. All it is is psylliunm husks. I don't believe there is anything else in it. Also, make sure you eat your veggies, start investigating the best veggies that will give you fiber and perhaps up your intake of these veggies.Comment

Re: Metemucil
careful...metamucil is psyllium. If the psyllium is the problem then that other brand is just a different brand of the same stuff.
Now, do you *REALLY* need to take a fiber supplement??? If you are eating high fiber vegetables, you may not need to take fiber. If you do need to supplement, you should try ground flax seed.~Joy

Re: Metemucil
There are lots of great flax recipes...my favorite is flax bread!! You can put flax in mock danishes too, if you eat them.Originally posted by ValidRouge

Re: Metemucil
Definitely try flax meal--make a mock danish with it, and bam, there's your fiber. Mock danish tastes sort of like french toast to me...it's pretty good, and it's healthy.START 8/16/06 @ 270+~MG1: 220-12/2/06~MG2: 210-1/07~MG3: 199-3/2/07~MG4: 190-4/27/07~MG5: 180-7/04/07~GOAL: 170
