Re: Benefiber       06/15/04 06:21 PM Edit Reply Quote ChristineM Reged: 05/31/04 Posts: 1662 Loc: soCal Technically all soluble fiber supplements are marketed as laxatives.

Heather 06/15/04 06:35 PM Re: Exactly - "bulk laxative" is code for soluble fiber - it's not a true laxative at all... Karin 06/15/04 06:43 PM Guar gum? Or other SFS? Or all of them?
