Probiotics, Fiber and Digestive Enzymes

The discussion will center on the efficacy of fiber supplements. Should fiber be taken for both constipation and diarrhea alike? Can it have a positive effect on IBS? What about bloating and gas? What sets TruFiber apart from other fiber supplements will be discussed, including mention of the new “in” fiber ingredient these days—inulin. Clinical studies will be reviewed as well as indications that this fiber supplement can enhance the absorption of calcium and magnesium as well as lower cholesterol and triglycerides.
