Garden of LifeRaw Organic Fiber Supplement Powder - 10 Servings, 15 Organic Superfoods + Probiotics & Omega-3 ALA, 4g Soluble & 5g Insoluble Fiber for Regularity - Psyllium Free

I've been trying various ways to increase my fiber intake lately- whole foods and supplements- and this is my favorite by far.First, I feel like it's a supplement, but a whole food supplement. Try as I might, I could never consistently eat enough regular food to meet my fiber goals on a regular basis. I mean, my weird, sensitive stomach is why I'm trying to increase my fiber in the first place. And I can eat enough of this to meet my fiber goals. It's never once upset my stomach (any more than it always is), but more fiber in general has seemed to help reduce my IBS flare ups.One of my symptoms is that, upon waking, I can't eat much, so I'm weak and hungry until I can, which is usually lunch. Well, since I can eat this in the morning, and it is such a solid, nutritionally dense food, it actually fills me up and keeps me feeling functional until lunch. Game changer! Though if you have a healthy body and can eat breakfast, this might not be such a game changer, in this regard, for you.One more comment- I read a lot of reviews that say they don't like the taste or texture. When you read this next comment, keep in mind that I like things thick. For example, when I make chocolate milk with a powder, I don't add much milk, and don't mix it much. I like it thick and kind of chunky.I actually really like both the taste and texture of this! I add it to a cup of milk, with a scoop of chocolate protein powder, and frankly, I think it's delicious. It is thick- it reminds me of cream of wheat. But really good. I'm sticking with one serving a day, but I could drink more!

First, regarding the reviews that says this “didn’t work,” this is a daily fiber supplement, not a laxative. It’s not going to clear your colon 15 minutes after you take it. It’s meant to increase the amount of whole dietary fiber since most people do not consume enough fiber in their regular diet.I have tried several different types of fiber supplements from gummies to chewables to capsules to powder form. Although the gummies and chewables generally have a good flavor, they typically only have a fraction of the dietary fiber that this powder supplement contains. And unlike this powder supplement, the gummies and chewables tend to have only one or two sources of fiber and they’re heavily processed and not “whole” food fiber like this one. As for the capsule fiber supplements I have tried in the past (mostly psyllium), they’re okay, but for the most part, they also contain a fraction of the fiber that this supplement has. After all, capsules are small and only contain so much fiber whereas a single serving of this is a pretty big scoop. More on that in a moment.This supplement contains a variety of natural sources of organic fiber. I like that it’s fiber from multiple sources rather than a single source. I think that’s probably better for maintaining the diverse, healthy flora in your digestive tract and more closely matches what a natural diet high in plant fiber would contain. The variety of fiber also adds to the flavor. This tastes sort of like unsweetened cream of wheat or malt-o-meal cereal. If you have ever tried plain psyllium husk, it tastes like sandy cardboard.As I mentioned above, this is a pretty large amount of fiber compared to other supplements. You mix one scoop (probably the equivalent of about 3 tablespoons) with water, milk, or your favorite beverage. You’ll want to mix it with at least 6 ounces of liquid because after a couple of minutes, the fiber absorbs much of the liquid and thickens quite a lot. You can either drink it right after you mix it and before it thickens (that’s what I usually do) or just add a bit more liquid if it gets too thick. It dissolves well in water, and unlike other powdered fiber supplements like plain psyllium, this isn’t Sandy (psyllium only dissolves TPA point). Don’t get me wrong, this still has a thick consistency as it absorbs liquid, and that’s why I referred to it like drinking a glass of cream of wheat. I haven’t tried it in milk or juice. I think it would work pretty well in a juice smoothie or maybe in a glass of milk, but be aware that it will thicken quite a lot. I drink mine at around 10:00 am every day because it fills me up until lunch. It’s about like having a packet of unflavored instant oatmeal as a snack.Pros:Highest fiber content, several different natural sources of dietary plant fiber, decent taste (but unflavored), fills you up.Cons:None, other than if you prefer flavored fiber supplements, this is unflavored and might seem a bit bland.

Wow this stuff is amazing !!! Helps with weight loss because the fiber keeps your regular and extremely full . The texture is perfect I am very particular when it comes to texture and this mixes perfect with my yoghurt and oatmeal !! It’s not gritty at all wow thank you so much for this taste good . When I add it to something it kinda taste earthy or like oatmeal or maybe plain Cheerios basically a really light flavor and perfect texture not gritty like other fibers I had or no super thick .Thank you !! I will be getting more !

I've been using the Garden of Life Fiber Supplement for a few months now, and overall, I'm very pleased with the results. This product offers a unique blend of 15 organic superfoods, probiotics, and Omega-3 ALA, which makes it a comprehensive addition to my daily health routine.First and foremost, the fiber content is impressive. With 4g of soluble fiber and 5g of insoluble fiber per serving, it really helps maintain regularity without the use of psyllium husk, which some people (myself included) can find harsh on the stomach. The addition of probiotics is a nice touch, contributing to overall gut health.The taste is quite earthy, which might not be for everyone, but I find it manageable when mixed into smoothies or juices. It doesn't dissolve completely in water, leaving a bit of a gritty texture, so I highly recommend blending it with other ingredients rather than drinking it on its own.One of the standout features is that it's made from organic ingredients. Knowing that I'm consuming a product free from artificial additives and chemicals is a big plus for me. It's also certified non-GMO, gluten-free, and vegan, which makes it suitable for a wide range of dietary needs.However, there are a couple of drawbacks. The price is on the higher side compared to other fiber supplements on the market. Additionally, the packaging could be more user-friendly; the powder tends to clump, making it a bit messy to scoop out.Despite these minor issues, the Garden of Life Fiber Supplement has significantly improved my digestive health and overall well-being. If you're looking for a high-quality, organic fiber supplement and don't mind the taste, this product is definitely worth considering.
