How to Get Fiber?
You all know I am on a weight loss program. It is not a diet though. It really is a lifestyle. For it to work, it has to be a lifestyle. So forget about the latest diet and exercise trends. There is not way you can lose in simple 10 minutes a day exercises or what ever fad it out there right now. Getting healthy and staying healthy is not a fad — it should be a lifestyle.
Part of my weight loss program includes getting enough fiber. One way to add fiber to your diet is by using psyllium fiber. This is the type of fiber found in Konsyl products. Why psyllium fiber?
Clinical studies have shown that 7 grams of soluble fiber from psyllium husk, taken daily as part of a heart healthy diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease by helping to lower cholesterol AND can help with weight management AND can help regulate constipation and diarrhea.

My Two Cents: Fiber, including Konsyl Fiber was very important during my pregnancy. I talked with my midwife early on in my pregnancy with my Little Man and she also assured me that using Konsyl was safe and helpful for constipation during pregnancy. So I used it regularly. One tip: drink lots of water with this fiber supplement! It really works and it is such an easy way to get your fiber.
