Another SFS

I came across this one by chance before I was diagnosed this spring, and it made a huge difference in my symptoms, to the point where I almost felt bad about going to the GI doc because I finally felt good for the first time in a few years.

It is called Slim Styles PGX http://www.slimstyles.com It is meant to be used as a meal replacement drink to lose weight. My mom swears by it but I never lasted long on it between the cost and the flavour. It works wonders though if you need to be cleaned out!

It also comes in capsule form which is more convenient than the drink. Each scoop is 2.5g of fiber, and they recommend 4 scoops a day. I felt fairly good on just two scoops. It absorbs up to 600 times it weight in water and continues to thicken and expand in the stomach and intestine for a few hours after ingestion. It definitely took care of the C! I think it would also be good for those days when everything bothers you, because it is filling, nutritious and completely safe. I have a little bit left, I will try it the next time I'm having a bad tummy day!
