Fiber is a complex carbohydrate which is found in plants. The body does not digest fiber; instead the fiber component of food passes through the digestive system. There are two types of fiber - soluble and insoluble fiber. Much like it sounds, soluble fiber is fiber that dissolves in water and insoluble fiber is fiber that does not. The best way to get fiber is through a whole food diet of fruits, vegetables, grains, seeds and legumes. The role fiber plays in a healthy diet became apparent at the turn of the century. Diets previously high in dietary fiber were altered to include the new wonder foods, refined sugar and mill

Customer Reviews

Very good fiber
This is one of the best fiber supplements on the market. Not only does it include both soluble and insoluble fiber, it also includes beneficial probiotic bacteria and on top of that tastes great. Each scoop of Super Seed contains 7g of fiber from whole foods like flax seed, chia seed and legumes. On top of that, since it's a whole food fiber, it also adds nutrition to whatever you mix it with in the form of protein, vitamins, minerals and beneficial fats from the flax seeds(omega 3).

The best part about this is that it doesn't contain Psyllium which is the 'in' fiber these days but a lot of people find that it's too harsh on the stomach and can cause constipation easily if not taken with a lot of fluids. Super Seed is much gentler than your average fiber supplement and tastes great with anything. My favorite way to use it is to add half a scoop to Lifeway's plain kefir. It tastes great and is very healthy for me too. As with any fiber supplement, make sure to drink 6-10 glasses of water a day.

You need Fiber
Years ago, I used to fast once a week and really take good care of myself. I fell off the wagon and started working and going out a lot and forgot that I really need to take care of myself. I decided to do a cleanse with the Garden of Life 10 day kit. It is suggested that after the cleanse that you maintain colon health with this fiber. I decided to take a chance and I love this fiber. I take this before I go to bed and in the morning I eat Fiber One cereal, (although the cereal has a sugar substitute that I am not crazy about), but these in combination make me feel like I am walking on air. You will lose weight and feel like a new person. I plan on continuing use and also using the Garden of Life cleanse twice a year. Get it!

Super Seed Helped Acid Reflux
My husband has bad acid reflux and bad side effects to all the drugs used for that (you know what those are if you have acid reflux). So we needed to find a more natural alternative. We hit on Super Seed & it helps him. What more can I say.
