FODMAP Friendly certification is the detail that matters here. Fibre is the category most likely to cause trouble on a low-FODMAP diet, and a certified one takes the guesswork out of it - as does a single-ingredient formula with nothing else to react to.
The powder is partially hydrolysed guar gum, made from guar bean, sold under the Sunfiber name. It is soluble but non-thickening, so unlike psyllium it will not turn a glass of water into a gel while you are drinking it, and it has no real taste or aroma of its own.
The dosing schedule is worth following properly. Start at one level teaspoon, roughly 2-3 g, once a day, mixed into 200-300 mL of water, juice, a smoothie, yoghurt or a warm drink until fully dissolved. Hold that for several days, then increase gradually as it feels comfortable. Most people build towards a tablespoon daily, taken at once or split between morning and evening. Drink more water across the day while you are doing it, and take it at the same time each day - consistency is what makes it work.
Two sizes: 150 g for trying it or for a small cupboard, and 300 g once it has become a regular part of the routine. Vegan, gluten free, non-GMO and low FODMAP, with no added sugar, flavours, colours or preservatives.
Reseal the tub tightly after each use, since the powder clumps if it takes up moisture.
Ingredients
Partially Hydrolysed Guar Gum (PHGG), Sunfiber prebiotic soluble fibre. No added sugar, flavours, colours or preservatives. Vegan, gluten-free, non-GMO, low-FODMAP.
Directions
Start with 1 level teaspoon (approximately 2-3 g) once daily. Mix into 200-300 mL of water, juice, smoothies, yoghurt or warm drinks until fully dissolved. Maintain this dose for several days, then increase gradually based on comfort. Most people build towards 1 tablespoon daily, taken once or split morning/evening. Increase water intake throughout the day when using fibre. PHGG works best when taken consistently at the same time each day.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct heat. Reseal tightly after each use to prevent clumping. Keep out of reach of children.
Warnings
Always read the label and follow directions for use. If symptoms persist, consult your healthcare professional. Increase fibre intake gradually and ensure adequate water consumption to avoid discomfort.
