Is there a place to buy Benefiber in bulk?



Recommended Posts

I buy the 25.6 oz containers at costco but I use so much of it, I'd love to find a cheaper alternative. I feel like they must use Benefiber at hospitals and clinics. Does anyone know where to purchase big containers? THANK YOU!

I looked around on the net but didnt see anything about it, so I would contact the makers of this directly to find out, this is their contact information per their website.

Prepster,

I just bought the big container at costco and started adding a little of it here and there... do you find that it really helps you "go" if you use a lot of it? In reading about it, compared to Metamucil it is dietary Fiber but not necessarily a laxative. The different types of Fiber on the market confuse me right now. Fiber is definitely a hot item but I want to choose the best one and use it wisely.

Thanks for your input!!

Sam's club sells a huge container for a good price. Best deal on it I've ever found.

I've been using Benefiber since I had the lap band surgery one and a half years ago. It worked pretty well, but I had to use a lot more than the recommended amount. But it stopped working and I've used a lot of it. What do you think is going on?

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
