Today I received an e-mail from Digestive Health SmartBrief, a newsletter talking about the great excitement over gluten-free products. If you are interested in receiving a useful newsletter which deals with a lot of GI topics, take a look at this site.
About a year and a half ago, Konsyl became a sponsor of the Celiac Disease Foundation (http://www.celiac.org/), so we have long been aware of gluten-free products and why our Konsyl Original is so important to those with the disease. Konsyl is manufactured with refined psyllium husk and it is gluten free. It is a great way to start adding more fiber to your life, in a way that makes you feel better.
On another subject: Has anyone been taking Konsyl for managing their cholesterol? I bring this up since our company President has just been taken off Lipitor because he has adjusted his diet and added Konsyl every day. Did you ever hear of anyone ever getting off medication the natural way? See this article for more info on lowering cholesterol with psyllium fiber. It says you need 7g of soluble fiber. Each teaspoon of Konsyl Original has 3g. You could take Konsyl twice a day, have a banana or apple and be done. To do the same with oats, this article points out, you’d be eating 400 calories of oats. Each teaspoon of Konsyl Original psyllium has only 3 (three) little calories.
Have you had you fiber today? Have you had your Konsyl – The all-natural, gluten-free fiber?
Have a good day!!!!
The fiber guy
