Surprisingly tasty

Pros:Pleasant taste, portable, minimal side effects, if any.
Cons:Very slight medicinal aftertaste.
The Bottom Line: This product increases your daily fiber intake by 6 grams per packet, tastes pleasant, and is portable.
I know that most of us would prefer to refrain from discussing the fact that our fiber needs change as we mature in age but I don't suffer from such problems; I need fiber and I need lots of it.
The beauty of this product is that it is neither grainy nor powdery. In fact, the wafer actually resembles those beloved oatmeal cookies shaped like windmills.
And if you are sensitive to man-made sugar (saccharin, Splenda, etc.), you don't have to worry when eating this fiber supplement because it comprises of sucrose--a natural derivative of sugarcane.
Each packet contains two small, manageable wafers that can each be consumed in a few bites. I like to savor the flavor, believe it or not, and treat each wafer like its dessert. The directions caution you to drink a minimum of 8 ounces of liquid with each packet, and I follow the directions to the letter.
Another plus to this product is the fact that you can take a packet and put it in your lunch bag, purse, etc. It's completely portable.
Additionally, one packet adds 6 grams of fiber to your diet daily and you can consume up to three packets per day if you're 12 years of age and older.
Over the years I have used all of the powders on the market and find them to be inconvenient as well as unpleasant.
I consume one packet per day when I think about it. It does have a slight medicinal aftertaste, but it is, after all, a pharmaceutical product.
I must relate that after the product has been consumed I do not experience bloating, gas, nor gastrointestinal discomfort.
I highly recommend this cinnamon flavored cookie-like wafer to increase fiber in your diet as it tastes pleasant, is user-friendly as well as portable and only requires that you consume 8 ounces of a beverage of your choice. What could be easier than that?
Bon appetit!
