This was recommended to me by my doctor after having a hemmorhoid removed (uh, this review IS anonymous, right?). He said if I take this every day I won't have to see him again, and so far he's right! I use these packets while traveling and use the bulk container at home. You get more fiber here than any other supplement. True, the taste isn't great, but shake it up good with some juice and it goes down. As the doc put it, don't bother with those "sissy" fiber supplements and use the best.
I travel alot. I carried this on last trip to south america - HORRID! Taste/Texture/Mix-ability is foul: really, really FOUL. I appreciate that it is the best size for effective daily use but give me a break - I couldn't choke this swill down. I eventually just tossed it.
