Dietary fiber is divided into two categories... soluble fiber and insoluble fiber. Both types of fiber are beneficial to our bodies. Studies indicate that soluble fiber may help reduce blood cholesterol, while the insoluble fiber passes quickly through the digestive system and helps clear the colon of toxins and other wastes. Fiber can assist weight loss goals by providing a "full" feeling.
The National Cancer Society recommends 25-30 grams of fiber per day. The typical North American diet consists of only 8-10 grams of daily fiber.
What is LiFiber?
LiFiber is a psyllium-based powder drink that can be added to water, juice, or the beverage of your choice. LiFiber provides ample high-quality dietary fiber and herbs that are beneficial to the gastrointestinal tract.
The uniqueness of LiFiber is enhanced by the inclusion of a special dietary fiber called Fructooligo Saccharide (FOS). FOS, which is derived from chicory root, is a naturally sweet substance that cannot be digested by human digestive enzymes. FOS is mainly used as a source of food for the "beneficial" bacteria Bifidobacteria and Acidophilus.
LiFiber includes 29 different herbs which supply both insoluble fiber and the soluble fiber. The psyllium base provides eight times more soluble fiber than oat bran. This balanced formula supplies 5.6 grams of soluble and insoluble fiber per 10 gram serving. Fiber can assist in weight management goals by providing a "full" feeling. Studies indicate that soluble fiber may help reduce blood cholesterol, while insoluble fiber passes quickly through the digestive system and helps clear the colon of toxins and other wastes. Dietary fiber acts as if it had zero calories and is found only in plant sources.
