Last week, I became aware of this website, and immediately ordered Heather's Tummy Fiber and the Fennel Tea. I knew it would take at least a couple days shipping, but wanted to start the fiber right away, so I called around and finally found a health food store that sells acacia powder. It is made for the Fiber 35 Diet, and it is 100% acacia powder. So I started it and have been on it for a week now.
My question is that I opened my bag from Heather today, and I am very confused. The one I got at the health food store has a distinct smell to it that I would compare to Elmer's white glue. The one from Heather does not have the same smell. There is hardly any smell. It makes me worried that they are not the same somehow.
Also, I was under the impression by all the reading I've done here that IF and SF have no calories, but the label on Heather's Tummy Fiber says it contains 10 calories per teaspoon! With my C, I will need to eventually get up to probably 5 T a day, meaning 150 extra calories! Okay, that's not a great deal, but it IS significant in my book.
Anybody have any input? I'd appreciate it much. Thanks!
