Try Benefiber. Its less expensive and you get twice as much. It is 100 percent solube fiber.




Benefiber is pure soluble fiber, but I don't calculate it as less expensive than Acacia.

Heather's Acacia is $13.95 for a 1-pound pouch that contains 60 Tablespoons. Each Tablespoon contains 7.5 grams of Soluble Fiber. So you get 450 grams of Soluble Fiber for $13.95 or 3.1 cents per gram of SF.

At DrugStore.com , 60 Tablespoons of Benefiber is $19.95. Each Tablespoon contains 3 grams of Soluble Fiber. So you get 180 grams of Soluble Fiber for $19.95 or 11 cents per gram of SF.

I certainly agree that people who have trouble with Acacia may tolerate another SFS better, but those other SFS are not necessarily cheaper.
