For those that have difficulty consuming an adequate amount of fiber from real food, what are your thoughts on fiber supplements such as Metamucil (psyllium) or Citrucel (methylcellulose)?

I supplement with psyllium & it does work. But you have to make sure that you drink enough water with it. I hate the texture though.

We get the whole type here not the Metamucil one, Metamucil is much much smoother than whole one & the texture is better too....

I try to get in at least 2 doses of 3-5gram each, some times I mix it with my protein shake.

I dump a teaspoon of fiber into my protein shakes. Works for me.
