Description: YERBA PRIMA Yerba Primas Soluble Fiber formulations contain all three types of soluble fiber. Soluble fiber helps to lower high cholesterol levels.* Soluble fiber is also a food source for beneficial bacteria. This increases the population of good bacteria in the colon, which helps keep harmful bacteria and yeasts under control.* Ingredients: Psyllium seed husks, acacia gum, oat bran, apple fiber, fruit pectin. Suggested Usage: ADULTS AND CHILDREN OVER 12: 1 heaping teaspoon, one to three times a day. CHILDREN 6-12: 1 level teaspoon, one to three times a day. See Directions. Directions: Start by taking 1 serving each day. Gradually increase to 3 servings per day as needed. Stir powder briskly into at least 8 ounces (a full glass) of juice, water or other fluid. Drink immediately. Drinking additional liquid is helpful. If minor gas or bloating occurs, reduce the amount you take until your system adjusts. Caution: A very small percentage of individuals, particularly health care providers who have been occupationally exposed to psyllium dust, may develop a sensitivity to psyllium. This sensitivity may result in an allergic reaction. If you experience a strong reaction, with difficulty in swallowing or breathing after taking this product, seek immediate medical attention. Keep out of the reach of children. Swell Volume: For formulas with psyllium husks, the USP requires a minimum of 31.4 ml/g swell volume, a measure of how absorbent the fiber is. Soluble Fiber far exceeds the standard with a normal swell volume of 50 to 60 ml/g, which means that it is absorbing 50 to 60 times its weight in liquid and waste materials as it passes through the digestive system.

Product Detail: Soluble Fiber Formula is a simple, natural way to help promote heart health by supporting normal cholesterol levels. Soluble fiber has been shown in numerous studies to help remove excess cholesterol from the intestinal tract. Soluble Fiber Formula is a concentrated source of soluble fiber from multiple sources, including the two most proven sources of soluble fiber – psyllium husks and oat bran.
In addition to its benefits for the heart, soluble fiber helps to support the population of friendly bacteria in the colon, softens the stools for easier elimination and supports production of protective short-chain fatty acids in the colon.
Health authorities, including the Food & Drug Administration, recommend 25 to 35 grams daily of fiber for good health. Most Americans consume only 10 to 15 grams of fiber each day, less than half of the recommended amount. For improved health, it is beneficial to eat a variety of high fiber foods and take a fiber supplement as needed.
For best results, use everyday as long as desired. Soluble Fiber Formula contains no added sweeteners, colors or additives.
