Easy Fiber, 5.89 Oz, by Life Extension
“Get more fiber.” It’s age-old advice, but most Americans don’t consume enough fiber in their diets.1 And that’s too bad, because it’s important to get enough fiber for a variety of reasons: digestive health, regularity, satiety, and heart health, just to name a few.
Adjustable dose, multiple benefits
Many fiber supplements are made with psyllium husk. But this form of fiber tends to be bulkier and requires a larger daily dose to achieve the same benefits as Life Extension's Easy Fiber! Easy Fiber is made from konjac root (Amorphophallus konjac), a form of fiber often used in Asian cuisine.
Konjac delivers the same benefits (including regularity, satiety, heart and gut health) as other fibers, but at a lower dose.2
Regularity, satiety and digestive health
Easy Fiber helps promote regularity and supports yLife Extension's digestive health partially through its role as a prebiotic. In fact, healthy regularity and a prebiotic effect were observed in clinical trials that provided supplemental glucomannan fiber to adults on a low-fiber diet.3,4
Another reason people take fiber is to promote satiety—the feeling of being satisfied after eating. Why? Because, simply put, if you’re not hungry, you’ll eat less. Glucomannan fiber from konjac root excels at promoting satiety.2,5
Already-Healthy Cholesterol & Blood Sugar Levels
Glucomannan fiber isn’t just for regularity and gut health either. This soluble fiber is known for its heart health benefits, too! In a meta-analysis of 12 randomized controlled trials, consumption of two or more grams of glucomannan fiber daily for three to 12 weeks helped to maintain already-healthy LDL and HDL cholesterol levels.6
In a group of 25 healthy middle-aged men, adding glucomannan to rice before eating it helped maintain healthy blood sugar levels, compared to simply eating rice by itself. Furthermore, when study participants increased the amount of glucomannan ingested it produced even better results.7
More good news: this lightly orange-flavored fiber powder is also vegetarian, gluten free, sugar free and contains no artificial flavors, colors, or sweeteners (unlike competitors like Metamucil®*).
*Compared to Metamucil® Sugar-Free 4-in-1 Psyllium Fiber Supplement
Suggested Usage
Adults: Briskly mix one (1) level scoop in at least 8 to 10 ounces of water or beverage of choice (to taste), one to three times daily, or as recommended by a healthcare practitioner. Drink immediately. Taking without enough liquid may cause choking. Do not take if you have difficulty swallowing.
How much to take:
- Satiety (take before each meal) - 1/2 scoop, 3 times per day.
- Regularity - 1 scoop, 3 times per day.
- Heart - 1 scoop, 3 times per day.
- Maintain already healthy blood sugar levels (take before each meal) - 1 scoop up to 3 times daily.
