Great! Works Just as it says!
By Emmanuel Goldstein
Originally, I was skeptical of this product and its claims about being "tasteless", "grit-free", and "non-thickening". I have tried many fiber products that alluded to similar claims only to be disappointed in the long-run. So, I figured that I'd give this product the ultimate test: I put a serving (2 teaspoons) in a glass of pure spring water and stirred it. In about two minutes time it vanished. I drank it down and didn't even notice that it was there, and that means a lot to me. I have very sensitive taste buds that can detect the minute difference between fresh mountain spring and purified/filtered bottled water. This product is great and I will be buying a lot more of it. I will never use any other fiber supplement again. Though it's a bit on the pricier side, there's nothing comes nearer to it in quality and simplicity.

Best for gastric band patients and dieters.
By Alfonso F. del Granado
This is the only fiber supplement we recommend at Synchrony Health. Dr. Ghani mentioned that it serves to equalize your digestion - loosen if you're constipated, and firm things up if you have, umm, the opposite problem.

I don't want to be without it!
By lainibug
As a young woman, I've taken this for the past several months for two reasons. First, I was having IBS-type digestive symptoms. I really felt like Benefiber had given me a lot of relief along with taking probiotics.

Then, I got pregnant and took a break from all kinds of supplements until I could check with my doctor. I began to have daily uncomfortable bloating to the point that I didn't fit in most of my clothes. (Maybe from pregnancy, or maybe that's just how I am without Benefiber!) Once I got the go-ahead from my doctor to be back on the Benefiber, I take two doses daily and I've been comfortable and back in regular clothes for a few more weeks before the baby causes actual growth.

What I like, besides that it works: I find that it's not noticeable stirred into most things, though I don't like it in plain water. It takes some stirring in cold things, but will dissolve. There's no sugar or artificial sweeteners. Because it's soluble fiber, it helps even things out whether your system is too slow OR too fast. Soluble fiber is also the kind that's great for lowering cholesterol. Plus, I've found that it relieves rather than causing extra gas.
