Metamucil Now In the Philippines

Look at your plate right now. Can you tell me which food item on your plate has fiber?

Not yet eating? Check out my plate. Which one is my fiber source?

I asked because according to the Philippine Food and Nutrition Research Institute, Filipino adults should consume 20 to 25 grams of dietary fiber daily. With the way we eat (or I eat, as seen on my plate above) I may not be able to reach that requirement daily. Which poses a big problem when it comes to releasing toxins in the body by flushing it out doing number two.

Not having enough dietary fiber will either cause constipation, higher cholesterol levels, bloating or make cause you to be overweight.

That is why dietary fiber supplements were invented, to supply what we lack because of our unbalanced diet. White there is a very popular brand circulating for years now in the country, there is this World’s #1 Selling Fiber Supplement that finally made its way here in the Philippines, Metamucil.

Metamucil was revealed to us at an intimate lunch held at the M-Cafe in Makati attended by their brand ambassador Maricel Laxa-Pangilinan. Metamucil is made with 100% natural psyllium fiber from the husk of the seeds of of the plant plantago ovata which can provide four benefits: 1) helps promote digestive health, 2) helps lower cholesterol to promote healthy heart, 3) helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels as part of a healthy diet, 4) and helps you feel less hungry between meals.

It sounds very promising really, and I am very much excited. I have tried a glass and well… I will tell you more about it in a review soonest.

Anyway, Metamucil comes in two taste flavors, Orange Smooth and Wild Berry and is now available in leading drugstores nationwide.

I will be trying it out myself and will take a 14 day challenge to see how it will make me Eat Healthy and Stay Healthy (Very important reminder: this is not a dietary supplement to make me slim exercise and proper diet is still needed).

Metamucil is sold at Php770.00 per 283g container good for 48drinks. Review to follow soon!  Meanwhile, get 2y0 off the regular prize when you order from Lazada just use the Meta20 code upon checkout.
