2.0 out of 5 stars Full of Sorbitol, April 26, 2010

I have been suffering from IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) for more than ten years. I have never been good about getting enough fiber in my diet, so my doctor suggested that I try a fiber supplement. I chose Fiber Choice sugar free because it looked like a good deal I had heard good things about it. It came in the mail two days ago and I tried it right away. I only took two tablets to start, since I didn't want to overload my system. I quickly started having horrible cramps, bloating, gas, diarrhea, and nausea. I was confused because I usually consume more than 10 grams of fiber on an average day, so it shouldn't have upset my digestion so much. Then, after a day and a half of misery, I had an epiphany; the tablets were sugar free and sweetened with sorbitol (which is a known IBS trigger). Considering all of the sweeteners they could have used, sorbitol just seems like a very poor choice on the manufacturer's part. Also, the amount of sorbitol in the tablets is excessive (it is the second ingredient and before corn starch). The tablets were very tasty, but I would not recommend the sugar free variety to anyone.

I've tried my share of fiber supplements recently, as part of a healthier diet. Most adults need 25-30 gm fiber per day, and if you don't eat enough fruits and vegetables, it's hard to get that amount daily. I chose these tablets because I don't have to mess with measuring out powders or changing the taste of my juice/water.

Pros: The fiber is pre-measured - chew 2-4 tablets a day and you're on your way to getting enough of the daily recommended fiber. Taste is not bad. This includes three different flavors, and while the grape is a little tangy/sour for my preference, the other two are decent. This brand also includes the most fiber per serving, up to twice the amount per serving in other brands such as Benefiber.

Cons: The inulin, where the fiber comes from, makes the tablets really stick in your teeth. It's a rather weird texture and occasionally makes me feel like I'm chewing on foil (hard to describe any other way), which is the reason for the 4- rather than 5-star rating. Overall though, still a good choice for fiber supplements.

Getting this on Amazon and having a pack of two shipped to my door is very convenient, and even more cost-effective than buying it at my local Target.

5.0 out of 5 stars A nutritious, convenient and healthy dietary product, February 3, 2010

In an ideal world all of us would be getting many more servings of fruits and vegetables than we actually end up with, but since we don't live in an ideal world it is a smart thing to do to get supplements that help us achieve our nutritional goals. These chewable tablets have many advantages over more traditional powdered dietary fiber supplements. There is no messy mixing into drinks, which makes them convenient to use outside home. Furthermore, they actually taste pretty good so you don't have an instinctive aversion towards them. However, you have to be careful: these tablets are not meant to completely supplant all of your soluble fiber needs. You should still strive to make your meals as balanced as possible.

The only issue that I have with these tablets is that since they are sugar free they leave a bit of an uncomfortable taste in my mouth that I have come to associate with most products that use sugar substitute. Other than that, this is a very good product that will help you maintain a balanced diet.
