Tasty and Effective

I don't care for the orange flavored fiber at all, but this tastes good. Normally I get unflavored and add crystal light, so this saves me some effort. The only drawback is that I can't concentrate or dilute the fiber per ounce as much, since that changes the flavor. Personally I find 2 teaspoons per 8oz to be the max dilution I can handle, making it not too flavorful to be chugged while still being just flavorful enough to help me overcome the somewhat odd texture of the fiber.
It's best to add this to mildly cold water, mix well (I shake it vigorously in a water bottle), and drink immediately. If it's mixed well in cooler water at the right dilution and you don't wait too long to drink it, the fiber is almost unnoticeable.
From my doctor and my own knowledge as an evolutionary biologist:
For those of you who are just starting fiber, it's important to not start with the full dose. Doing so can shock your digestive system and have the opposite of the intended effect. Ramp up from one teaspoon, taking it daily (best in the evening) adding an additional teaspoon each week until you reach 4 teaspoons (a tablespoon, the recommended dose).
When used regularly and correctly, daily fiber can be a life changer. Our gut microbiome is an integral part of our digestive system. It evolved with our species, and we need to feed it what it evolved to eat!
