Hello fellow travellers.

As well as eating veges all day I use a large quantity of fibre supplement to help manage a symptom of a chronic condition. The thing is it is wheat based and I would very much prefer to be using a seaweed type.

Does anyone out there know of any product/s. Also because of the condition I do not have much money so I hoping for a cheaper option and just can’t spend a lot on it.

Well wishes to all.

Different supplements will have different effects on gut motility, the microbiome, digestive health generally. They are not interchangeable. Wheat bran is rich in insoluble fibre and certain minerals; seaweeds are rich in soluble fibre and different minerals.

When using supplements as over the counter drugs to treat a diagnosed medical condition, it would be safest to seek the advice of a medical professional (eg. registered dietician/ specialist doctor/ pharmacist).

As per the Clever Guts book ensure your diet is properly balanced and very varied. Vegetables are important but not more so than other fibre rich wholefoods (seeds, nuts, beans, lentils, grains).

Thanks FireFox

Perhaps it wasn’t clear in my post.

I am looking to buy a seaweed fiber supplement.

Does anyone out there know of any products available?
