It's very important to know. Insoluble can't break down and helps stools bind , and bulk. Soluble fiber helps you feel the need to go by pissing it through the colon. Some fiber supplement don't have both which is pointless.
@@SillyOmegafor me its the complete opposite, soluble fiber makes my poop bulk and very easy to pass, where as insoluble fiber actually makes me have to use the bathroom, but doesn't improve the quality at all, in fact almost makes it worse and runny
Acacia fiber is what we use. It's actually one of the main ingredients in Bulletproof's product. We get ours from Anthony's Foods and mix it into our Key Nutrients Electrolytes. Tasteless/odorless, and has been an amazing addition to our Keto lifestyle.
I personally love Benefiber, it is low calorie and you can mix it with almost any drink except I do not recommend it with carbonated drinks. I have struggled with bowel movements and flare ups in my bottom part, which was painfully scary for me to use the restroom. Using the restroom has been pain free and smooth after starting Benefiber. I did also changed my diet to high fiber meals to get the recommend 32 grams of fiber a body needs. I take it first thing in the morning and about 3 hours before bed. My life has been completely changed thanks to Benefiber. It is something I am forever willing take!
This makes me hopeful. My GI recommended me start taking it once a day. I'm not seeing results yet, but I'll trust thr process and try to add fibrous foods in my diet.
@@art_strings . In spite of all the bad ingredients the psyllium fiber in Metamucil is great in detoxification of all the toxic waste stuck in your intestinal tract you will experience the difference in just 2 days, but you can get organic pure psyllium fiber for 15 dollars at most organic stores that sell vitamins with no added ingredients no need to order from Amazon, some Walmarts also have it, the benefiber it dissolves very easily and it doesn't have any taste but it doesn't seem to do anything I'm just hoping that is actually feeding my good probiotic bacteria, but definitely psyllium is the best and you're not saving any money buying Metamucil, if you shop at Walmart natural psyllium fiber is right by the section where benefiber and Metamucil are you can't miss it but is possible that all Walmarts might not have it. But if you can afford the one Bobby was recommending in this video go for it but pure organic psyllium will definitely help get rid of all toxic waste stuck to the walls of your intestinal tract.
I try and take natural sugar Meta Mucil every day simply to have champion poops. I drink almost exclusively water so I don't worry about the little bit of sugar.
haven’t watched the vid yet but is it 100% safe to take everyday? really want to try these but I don’t know if I want to risk side affects of trying them
I bought Metamucil sweetened with Stevia. Ingredients are psyllium husk, maltodextrin, citric acid, natural orange flavor, stevia, paprika extract, and turmeric. Much better than the one you had with aspartame. 👍
@Sophia Maria Maltodextrin spikes insulin levels worse than sugar and it destroys your stomaches good bacteria. the Yellow 6 is atrocious as well. I fell for the "sugar free" Metamucil garbage fiber one time as well, but no more.

I'm learning about how fiber brings down the carbs. To loose weight staying under 50carbs a day. But alot of foods low carb don't taste to good. I'm ordering the pancakes you use and looking for a syrup.

Just started taking the fiber well gummies. Didn't really check the "other" ingredients. Thanks for the info. I'll check out the Garden of Life products. 🤙🏽
I take Fiber Advance gummies from Walmart less than $10. Ingredients: chicory root fiber(inulin), cane sugar, pectin, citric acid, sodium citrate, natural flavors, organic turmeric, organic black carrot juice concentrate, organic annatto, organic sunflower oil, lonhan fruit concentrate, and organic carnauba wax. What do you think?
I use 4 prebiotics inulin, flaxseed, chia seed and psyllium husk. I use them in combination or separately on just about everything. Two cups of berries with a tablespoon or two of the four prebiotics. Comes to over 30 up to 45 grams of fiber.
I buy the "Now" brand psyllium husks at my local health food store (Natural Grocers). It has "zero" other ingredients!😊 Thanks for your informational and helpful videos, I sure appreciate you!!💖
The Metamucil I take has stevia instead of aspartame. The ingredients are: Psyllium husk, maltodextrin, citric acid, natural orange flavor, stevia, paprika extract (color), turmeric (color).
Last time I went to buy fiber pills a bunch of guys accused me of being a sexual predator and chased me out of the store. I ended up crashing my car and getting arrested. I’ve been backed up ever since 😢
I know that this video is 2 years old but a Pharmacist recommended Align Dualbiotic Prebiotic + Probiotic as a gut nourishment for digestive health. It is a fruity gummy supplement that is a little pricey at almost $20 per bottle for 54 gummies having 2 daily. They’re delicious and it solved some serious issues I was having digestively due to pain medication.
@@motivated3680 I have diabetes so I almost there reversed it and go to the gym regularly. I eat mostly healthy. Still having low energy and fatigue. Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
Because USA likes quick money and Canada cares more about there people. Its like that for many products. We have worst ingredients in everything, for the same products elsewhere.
I just had my second dose of Metamucil. I wanted to take it for all of the benefits labeled on the front of the label. I am not worried about being regular. I want all of the other benefits otherwise. I want the substance I take to do exactly what I see Metamucil does. I thought about taking Psyllium husk on its own, but I have to have a powder for immediate absorption; I don't like pills.
Thanks for the video. I've been using Metamucil but those are very good points. I've noticed that Costco Canada has them in pill form. They contain only Psyllium Husks and Gelatin and nothing else. I'll be switching to that since it is the most affordable healthy one out there.
Beware: I bought a psyllium husk product at CVS after comparing all the choices. I read the label, no other ingredients. BUT, when I was in the parking lot I took it out and then read the smaller print below. It said that psyllium husk can expose you to LEAD!! I walked back in the store and returned it. I looked at the other psyllium husk products and None had that warning. (Probably US manufacturers). So I googled it and found "Psyllium Husk has very low amounts of naturally occurring lead from the growth process. Lead can be found in soils around the world, the same soils used to grow and harvest crops. Lead is never intentionally added during the manufacturing process." So, I am thinking that psyllium husk must draw up more lead than the average crop or why would this warning be issued? I am back to oat bran.
I love your videos for Costco and all things healthy! I needed a good fiber supplement so I checked to see if you had a video for them and you did. You are awesome! Thank you!
Dear Bobby: Thank you for posting this educational video. Today, my doctor recommended Benefiber. Thank you for explaining how some fiber supplements have very unhealthy ingredients. I'm glad to learn that I can purchase benefited in the store. I'm happy it does not contain unhealthy chemicals.
The metamucil capsules (the ones Target brand are knocking off that you show in the video) are actually good. There's only Psyllium Husk and gelatin in ingredients. No sugar, colors or other icks whatsoever.
Thanks for sharing great tips especially for vegan fiber options. There’s so much bad stuff sadly with fiber products. Just got the now product from Amazon. Thank you!
You can buy the label "organic" either for a label or even in the ingredients. It doesn't mean it's fully organic because it says organic in the ingredients.
Perfect timing as I was just looking for psyllium husk powder for my daughter. Where do you find the Viva one Desi uses? I didn’t see it on amazon. Also I saw now has a powder on amazon so maybe I’ll try that one but it had the CA prop 65 warning about heavy lead...concerning? You mentioned not so much in your toothpaste video I believe. Thanks for doing this Bobby!
Hi Bobby! Longtime subscriber and watcher. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! I've been using Vital Proteins for a year now (discovered from watching one of your videos), but I see there's a lot more brands now. With all these different collagen peptides out in the market now, which ones are still the best that you would recommend?
I agree Bobby, but Fiber Well really works for me. I am hard pressed to get my daily fiber goal in food alone. I never had good luck with psyllium fiber, but I do with this Vitafusion product. Thanks for the info.
I am in the beginning stages of Kidney Disease and I have been looking at a lot of video's on what to eat and Fiber was mentioned over and over to help clean out your Kidneys
I started taking Garden of Like probiotics in capsules form a few months back, glad it’s on your approved list, a little expensive but can’t afford to get 😷 sick
Hi Bobby. I just found your channel, and I joined immediately after watching this video because you are very knowlegeable. I always stay abreast, too, with medical studies, and other medical info. So, I totally agree that many fiber products are unhealthy! And some like Metamucil have that prop CA 65 warning - carncinogens in them.
U have to be very careful when taking Psyllium Husk - there should be a warning on the packaging because it can harden In your body if you do not take enough water. It is very very important to drink water! Unfortunately, I did not copy the link to the video warning about how it can harden in your body and be extremely painful. You can do a search If you want more info and see the video.
Thank you for this video Ill come back with an update on Garden of life raw fiber. the past two months I’ve been going 2-3 days out of every week not going and it really sucks because before this I had a pretty fast metabolism I’ve been drinking chlorophyll and it’s been helping but only on the days I remember to drink it and I just want it to go back to normal!
I buy the shopper drug mart brand for the canadians out there . No sugar , organic non gmo and it’s cheaper than metamucil . Not shure of the other ingredients since I haven’t bought in a while . They also have inulin fiber that only says chicory root on it , no other ingredients.
Timing well synced! From your series can guess where you're from... hmm.. Great improvement you had! I watched till the end and i love to give you thumbs up!
Walgreens has some fiber gummies...I had them but didn't pay any attention to the ingredients..all I remember is they gave me hella gas.. I'll have to try out some of that organic fiber powder because it has good amounts of both insoluble and soluble fiber and some good ingredients. Those psyllium husk pills look good ingredients-wise and got a good price but you have to take 9 of them for only 3g of fiber!
I am.so confused as to what to get. I'm not constipated but like right after I eat. Not even 15 mins and my belly cramps up so bad. Then I have diarrhea So my mom told me I need fiber?
Hi Bobby - My Mom takes the Spring Valley Probiotic Multi-Enzyme with Active Acidophilus Cultures twice a day... Can you tell me if it's any good?? Thanks and keep up the good work! 🤗🙂👏🏼
I just ran into ur stuff cus i was trying to learn what are some of the ingredients listed in these supplements very informative was looking for a fiver one and u pointed to some very natural and love that u showed the ingredients list and talked about and deteared ppl from the sugar ones cus thats what im trying to stay away from!! I’ll continue watching can u do the fiber powder for the cvs and raleys one !!? Brand also Can u do one for. Hair what are good supplements that actually carry all the vitamins that it would actually need for hair to help strengthen it some supplements carry some vitamins but exclude others that it need to carry these vitamins like the door to allow it to open as some vitamin have to be paired to work to the best of there ability hope that makes sense
Hey Bobby, I’m Ye. I like what you do but I’d like to request more BLACK / BROWN / DIVERSE ETHNIC BACKGROUNDS OWNED BRANDS ITEMS and RECIPES and FARMS to spotlight and support us like we support you
Do you have any suggestions for him or for the rest of us regarding brands or recipes or farms? You could put them out there for all of us to check out. If you truly want them to be supported.
Can someone explain the difference between a prebiotic and a probiotic? In other words, if I take a prebiotic, do I also need to take a probiotic as well?
Bobby you should make a video on shopping at farmers markets & supporting local businesses. As a country, we have to stop relying on china and become self-sufficient producers of our own foods & goods!!!!
I have questions with the fiber powders. I strive to get enough water throughout the day. Whenever I've taken a fiber power in water and eat a high fiber cereal, I get excessive gas and bloating? How do I prevent that? On top of that, sometimes my poop comes out runny. How do I prevent that? How do I keep my pooping to come out in a healthy way?
I recently listened to a gut health expert talk about how quinoa is actually really bad for digestion and falsey touted as a "healthy" superfood. Ive only heard that from that one source but sure makes me want to learn more. They claimed that its impossible for us to digest properly and can actually read havoc on our stomachs. Has anyone heard this b4?🤔
@@dianasolfest7237 i wish I could remember for sure but I think it was dr gundry who has very controversial opinions and some people think he's a sham but after practicing his recommendations for extended period of time, i personally think there is at least some truth to his thoerys!
