I've been very curious about this new supplement as well. My local health store is very iffy about keeping a supply of Acacia on hand and it would be nice to know I can buy my supplement just about anywhere.

Cheaper because you just get more with Heather's Acacia (portions) for the money vs other brands out there.

I tried it and wasn't big on it. It's clear and non-thickening and I think the "gel" from Citrucel actually makes me go.
The Acacia powder - is it thickening or not?

Acacia is non-thickening.

I recived a sample of Fibersure today and was going to ask about it, but luckily I found this thread. Thanks everyone for the info. I think I'll stick with my Citrucel Clear Mix unless Fibersure works some miracle or until I can order Heather's Acacia.

Also, I was wondering, is it okay to use an SFS (like Citrucel Clear Mix, Acacia, or Fibersure, for example) okay in the Traditional Medicinals "Eater's Digest" tea?? Thanks for your help/input.
