Choose a naturally balanced fiber, here’s why. The best way to receive your fiber is the way nature intended, through your diet. Then you consume the recommended 25-35 grams of fiber per day, through a diet rich in fruits and vegetables, you consume a ratio of 75% insoluble fiber to 25% soluble fiber.
This is the NATURAL BALANCE that nature intended. Each type of fiber is important to your health. Soluble fiber, which dissolves in water, helps to absorb intestinal and liver toxins. Insoluble is the roughage that sweeps the colon free and promotes regular bowel movements.
When you supplement your diet with a fiber supplement, the easiest way to mimic the natural balance of 75% insoluble to 25% soluble fiber is by taking a flax-based fiber. Flax provides roughly the same natural balance (approximately 65-75% insoluble to 25-35% soluble fiber).
Most fiber supplements use psyllium fiber (many think its prevalence is due to it being an inexpensive raw ingredient for manufacturers to use, which provides the opposite of the natural balance). Psyllium has approximately 80% insoluble fiber and 20% soluble fiber. That’s why it swells and gels so significantly. When choosing your fiber supplement, look for a naturally-balanced, flax-based product.
