Great Tasting and a Great Snack! November 26, 2008

My doctor recommended that I take Metamucil because I have a tendency toward polyps in my colon. I first took the Metamucil powder but that didn't seem to work that great...then I tried the apple wafers..what a HUGE difference. It works like a charm and I even have more energy and feel so much lighter. I now buy Metamucil Fiber Wafers in bulk through Amazon...as they have the BEST prices. If you tried the powder and it didn't work...absolutely try the wafers...I even enjoy them as a cookie without the guilt...that's how good they are.

I finally bit the bullet, admitted I'm getting older and that I'm starting to have some of the classic problems of those who "get older". So I tried a number of fiber products, and I discovered that not all "fiber" sources are created equal.
First, psyllium fiber works really well for me, especially better than things like inulin (Fiber Choice), methylcellulose (Citrucel), and whatever it is that the government counts as fiber in breakfast cereal and "energy bars".
Second, the wafers also provide a greater (sometimes far greater) amount of fiber than do the other "convenience" methods of comsuming fiber -- the various tablets and caplets. Check the labels and you'll see.
Third, the psyllium in these wafers "swells" a bit when you eat them (you end up needing to drink a little.) This is not a bad thing: when both my parents got "stomach flu" a couple weeks ago, this is exactly the product that their doctor recommended to bring things under control.
Finally, they taste good and they don't require a ritual of dissolving things in water. Which increases the likelihood that I'll actually go ahead and do it every day. This is a Good Thing.
Cookies!! (well...almost!) May 16, 2008

These yum yums taste just like crispy apple cookies! Truly! I LOVE 'em. They make a great light "dessert" and are perfect in the morning with a nice cup of coffee or tea. In light of my ever-present weight loss plan, I do wish they had fewer calories (120 cal. for 2 wafers) and I also think they would even more delicious if they had a tad more cinnamon flavor, but all-in-all these are a real treat. Will definitely buy again :)
Can be considered first breakfast / snack November 24, 2007

These are like crunchy cookies, conveniently packaged in sets of 2 for travel or popping in my purse. I bought them initially for my hubby's business trips - just for health when traveling to less healthy parts of the US (where wilted salad comes drowned with heavy dressing and fried onion rings!). We all love them so much, we eat it at home too. It's especially great with coffee. I wish it smelled a little more like fresh baked cookies, but it doesn't smell bad either. It certainly can qualify as a treat food. Recommended for the bulk of us who don't get the fiber we need. The stereotype for this is for regularity, but we do it for intestinal health to prevent diverticulosis, polyps, and colon cancer which is all too common.
