Lifeplan Fibre 440mg 200 Tablets

I purchased these because I don't eat enough fibre. I have found taking 2 in the morning and 2 in the evening has improved my digestion. I spend less time on the toilet and less occasions and clearly they are helping my system. They do suppress hunger or should I say make you more full when eating after taking them but that was not my intension. They are flavourless or maybe a hint of dry albran cereal but not a worry easy to swallow.

Sometimes find difficult to swallow, I find they can be quite dry in the mouth so I take a sip of water and crunch them into a kind of paste... My usually choice of fibre is a mix of psyillium husk and slippery elm mixed with a teaspoon of glutamine which I try to take every morning. These tablets are more convenient to take later in the day so can take them with my lunch at work and 2 before tea time or if I'm working away. 5 stars, they work wonders!

The bottle says to take 2 before a big meal, at first I assumed that my lunch would count as a big meal so I would take 2 before lunch and 2 before dinner but this just gave me cramps, so I changed it to taking only 2 before dinner and this cause constipation, in the end I have settled to one before lunch and 2 before dinner, I no longer have cramps and my digestion is regulated properley unlike before taking them. Secondly, the pills are quite difficult to swallow with water and I actually choked on the first one that I took, so I have to take these with thicker liquids such as milk and swallowing them became easy, but I am one of those people that can't swallow those cheap powdery paracetamols, so i assume those who can swallow those paracetomls fine should be ok with these. Thirdly, as for the description saying that they can also help a diet, it does make me feel more full than I used to, I no longer feel hungry and crave food late at night, as for my weight I currently haven't seen any difference, as weight naturally fluctuates I cannot tell whether the 2 pounds I gained and then lost is due to these or not. Lastly, these pills make me bloat 24/7. It does what is says, but there are some downsides, so I gave this 4 out of 5.

Fine, did what they said but I choked on one trying to swallow it. The tablets start to break down the moment they hit liquid and so I didn't quite manage to swallow the first time and the second attempt caused chaos. It dried out my throat, got stuck, I breathed in and inhaled the dust from the breaking down tablet and choked so bad i nearly threw up and my children were terrified. I have thrown the rest out and will not buy again.

I didn’t find these made much difference to my daily habits... perhaps I need a higher dose of fibre. I also didn’t feel any fuller which I believe is one of the supposed benefits. Even if the above hadn’t have been the case, I still wouldn’t be a fan as the tablets are really difficult to swallow due to their size and texture. Quite a few times these got lodged in my throat, and I’m not someone who’s had an issue with swallowing pills before. I definitely wouldn’t buy again.

This is my second bottle and Im so impressed my sister and mum arenow also using this product. I didn't buy for slimming (fullness) purposes, more to get the actual type of fibre (sugar beet) It helps the gut in many ways and if your digestion is a bit ropy at the best of times this should help. We all tend to struggle with IBS issues in our family and nothing much has helped reduce symptoms, this product has gone the furthest in making life easier around food and comfort.

(Gifted) I really liked them. They were easy to swallow, and found them to be a great addition to my diet. The first thing I noticed is how quickly they improved my digestion, I didn't feel as heavy after meals and they worked within two/three days. I don't have enough fibre in my diet and they worked perfectly for me, I'd definitely repurchase them myself.

I seem to suffer from stomach problems, after taking these. Not the best way to add fibre to your diet.
