Comments about FiberCon Fiber Therapy For Regularity, Caplets, 90 ea:
Like Julia below, my gastroenterologist suggested taking FiberCon daily to control IBS. He suggests FiberCon vs. other products because so many of them are unpleasant to take and I agree, after everything I have tried I'd much rather sit down and swallow 6 caplets than chug a big glass of goo. If my issue was constipation that needed to be resolved right away, this isn't what I would choose because it can take days and days to work in those cases, but for daily fiber to keep your system balanced it's great.

I suffer from IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome), which involves frequent bouts of diarrhea. My doctor suggested taking FiberCon (ironically, a laxative) to see if would help. It has - immensely. Taken daily, the improvement has been exceptional. Highly recommended!
