I just bought the wheat bran and I was wondering. Do I have to eat the to tablespoon daily alone or do I mix it with water? Is this like a laxative at the beginning? is like is going to clean my body or is just going to actually make to don't go to the bathroom that much? :) Liz

I tried the bran an it was way too hard on my system...plus I read somewhere that Wheat in excess can also cause the symptoms of anxiety much like sugar can. So I try not to put too much into my diet.

I found that benefiber which is clear tasteless doesnt cause the bloat and gas. It also comes in a sugarfree formula. You can add it to your cereal your yogurt, your drinks even plain water it is totally tasteless and doesnt cause that choking hazard that other fiber suppliments can.

Hope it helps you.

forgot to say that this product was introduced to me by my doctor, when I was pregnant and was safe for me to take while pregnant so I still feel safe taking it now as well.
