How are people supplementing their fiber intake? I've been trying those Vitafusion fiber gummies and they only seem to give me gas and I got some Fiber One (original) last night to throw into my yogurt to get in 14 grams, but just wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions? In the past benefiber did not work too well for me, which is what the nutritionist recommends, and I wanted to look into other options. I saw something called Psyllum Husks (spelling is probably wrong) and not sure if that would be good supplement if anyone has any experience with this? Thanks

During the liquid stages my dr had me use Benefiber 2x a day. After that he prefers I get my calories, fiber and nutrition from solid foods.

I have a big problem with constipation I am trying chia seeds and Today I will get exlax and milk of magnesia .

I take 2 fiber supplement chewables every day. It's kept me regular since I started taking it about 3 months ago.

I started taking 2 fiber gummies a day. They are by Fiber Choice which is what my local Walmart had. I've been taking them for a few weeks now and they have helped tremendously. As for gas, I have it, I let it out but it's not any worse since I started taking the gummies.

I have to take half dose of Miralax every day to even approach regular. Benefiber and Collace do nothing for me.

another soul here, i for what ever reason, have no issues in this area so i dont take any fiber supplements (aside from my vitamins)

bet this is something you really didnt care to know about me, sorry

Thank you everyone for the input.

Line-dancer, have you ever tried a probiotic? They work pretty well for me but it seems like the one I'm taking is no longer effective, so I may try fiber choice or another probiotic. From what I read today, it seems like both Align and Cultruelle are supposed to be the better choices in helping in this area.

i know you didnt ask me, but after surgery, i was ms queen #2 to the potty

my dr told me to take a probiotic every day and in 2 days, it def helped me in that area...i opened it and put it in my protein shake..def made a difference

That's a good suggestion, I stopped taking Sustenex after surgery because I was fearful of the size of the pill and switched to pearls, which did good for about 6 months, but now not so much. What kind did you take CG?

I agree with miralax and also probiotics and my mom and all her friends are doing chia seeds in yogurt. My nurse called chias the new designer fiber.
