  • physillium husks

    Can someone give me a tried & true brand to buy. One that is rung 1 safe. I have a thing of Metamucil but I put it in a storage container & have no idea what it may have in it.

    I just looked up the regular orange flavor on the website & YIKES! Glad I didn't take it! 7 grams of sugar & 11 carbs! Even though the fiber is still there it's 6 grams of net carbs!

    Shoot, someone give me a clue as to what to buy or look for.

      I've used the Metamucil Caplets.

      Good luck!

        Konsyl is the best i have found, unfortunately its not capsules, you have to put it in water and mix it around and its kinda eww, but i usually use one of those lil 8 oz diet coke bottles, put it in there with water and gulp it down as fast as i can with a glass of water to drink after i get done.

          When I decided to try psyllium I found the only way I could 'stomach' them was to mix them with mayo and chopped celery! In water they made me gag
          Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
          Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

            I like yerba prima because it's just the fiber and nothing else. The only calories listed are from soluble fiber so it had a net carb of 0 (the label took forever for me to figure out). I got mine at the health food store but I had to put it in a mock danish; it's just to slimy to swollow.
