Fiber drink

After my last post I started to look up fiber content of the things I usually eat. I discovered that my morning drink that I start my day out with has 12 grams of fiber and only 60 calories! It has the consistency of mud but it's good for me! I have been taking psyllium husks, fresh ground flax meal, and ground Cinnamon. 1 Tablespoon of each in a big glass of water. Then I put 1 tablespoon of turmeric in a glass of water and drink that afterward. I'm not hungry for hours after that! I was taking these things for other health reasons, but was happy to discover the high number of fiber grams it has.

  2. Ack! Really? Benefiber has a tasteless powder that totally dissolves. You can sprinkle it on anything and not notice.
