Comment Comment by m463 I kind of wonder what the best form of added fiber should be.The thing about metamucil is that it has either added sugar or artificial sweeteners. the main ingredient is psyllium husk.I like benefiber better - no taste, just sprinkle on food. But I don't know how wheat dextrin compares to psyllium husk (or other fibers)A nurse I talked to takes psyllium husk by itself, and I wonder if that is better than metamucil. parent m463 1 year ago
