As long as I can remember, I have always had, for lack of a better word, stomach issues. My Mom and my Doctor’s always told me that I should eat more fiber and it would help regulate my issues. What I didn’t know about fiber was that not only is it good for me, it also helps the immune system, which is awesome!
According to the American Dietetic Association, most women only get about half the recommended daily allowance of fiber, count me in. Since I was diagnosed as having a gluten intolerance, I haven’t been able to consume whole grains, which I loved and were a huge source of fiber for me. I am an avid vegetable lover, but I don’t think I have been getting enough these days. FiberChoice is the prefect way for me to make sure I am getting my daily fiber allowance.
As a part of my “new” healthier eating regimen, I was happy to have the chance to review FiberChoice. Each tablet provides the natural benefits of fiber, and contain prebiotics – a unique fiber that nourishes the friendly, “good” bacteria that aids our digestive system. I know you’ve heard that term before, it seems to be popping up everywhere, and extremely important to living a healthy lifestyle.
They also come in delicious flavors. I don’t know about you, but other fiber supplements don’t have the consistency or flavor that is favorable to me. The tablets I tried came in strawberry, grape and green apple and they were yummy! They are quite large, but they are easy to chew, not chalk at all and again, have such a pleasant taste that I don’t mind the size at all, it almost feels like I’m eating candy, and who wouldn’t love that?

FiberChoice® Chewable Fiber Supplement
- FiberChoice® Chewable Fiber Supplement is a simple, convenient, natural fiber that provides the regular benefits of fiber, while also helping to support the immune system, digestive tract, and overall health.
- The main ingredient in FiberChoice® tablets is inulin, the same healthy fiber found naturally in many fruits and vegetables.
- Inulin is “prebiotic,” which means it nourishes the friendly, “good” bacteria in the digestive system.
Fiber Facts
- Most people need 25 to 30 grams of dietary fiber each day, but most of us get only 12 to 15 grams a day.
- One daily serving of FiberChoice® – just two chewable tablets – contains 4 grams of dietary fiber.
- Fiber is typically associated with regularity, but fiber is also important for overall digestive and full-body health.
- FiberChoice® should be taken every day as part of an ongoing effort to live a more healthy life.
Prebiotic Benefits for Full-Body Health
- Prebiotics are different from probiotics. Probiotics are “good bacteria” that live naturally in the gut, and are also typically found in yogurt or as supplements. Prebiotics are a plant-based fiber that feed the probiotics in the gut.
- Probiotics play an important role in full-body health by helping us digest our food and absorb nutrients, supporting immunity, and decreasing the ration of harmful bacteria in the gut.
- Our digestive system performs a constant “balancing act” between good, healthy bacteria and unhealthy bacteria. When the levels of bacteria are balanced, the body functions well. However, stress, poor diet and certain medications can disrupt this balance, allowing bad bacteria to multiply. Good bacteria help to keep the number of unhealthy bacteria in check.
- The prebiotics in FiberChoice® help probiotics grow and thrive to maintain a healthy, balanced digestive system and promote full-body health.
- FiberChoice® can be used along with foods or supplements containing probiotics, like Activia, as part of your daily health routine.
