How does the fiber in Citrucel with SmartFiber work?
Fiber, which is not digested in the body, can absorb up to 30 times its own weight in water, so that material in the digestive tract can take on bulk and a soft texture as it passes through the body. Fiber helps to prevent stools from becoming excessively loose, or dry and hard. If you suffer from diarrhea, the bulk that fiber creates may lead to larger stools and help “slow you down.” Bulkier stools are eliminated more easily than hard, pellet-like stools. So, if you suffer from constipation, fiber may help “speed you up.” Fiber regulates – naturally.
