i'm a little hesitant also to start a fiber supp but if the benefits outweigh the pains of finding the right one i'll try. altho i only took 2 doses (at a third of a full dose) this sunday of benefiber chewables it's wednesday and i had to take off work today b/c the cramps were hurting so badly. i got pretty backed up and gassy and it caused a painful cramp to permanently reside in my lower gut for the past 2 days. not fun.

who thought such a tiny dosage would be so effective? yikes. on to the next brand. AS, i may try the fiber choice next time i have to space out my experiments tho b/c missing work every 2 weeks really isn't an option :P good luck.




I think the benefits do outway the negatives, but you do have to find the one that works for you. I hesitated for awhile, because Citrocel gave me attacks, as did Acacia. Benefiber I could tolerate fine but didn't seem to do anything. So for awhile I didn't use anything, and then I tried Metamucil and it worked the best, and I'm so glad I use it. So I think it does pay to search through them and fine the one that works best for you, it really can help a lot!
