Fibre

Winners Explained

Fibre is an essential component in our diets and has proven benefits in both digestive and heart health. The British Nutritional Foundation guideline recommends a daily intake of 24g, but the average intake in the UK is only about half of this. As such, there is a general requirement to increase fibre intake; some supplements offer a convenient means of achieving this. In the opinion of the SC expert panel, a supplement should provide a minimum of 5g per day to make a meaningful contribution to fibre intake. 

This is a powder product in individual sachets, each of which contains 3.3g of fibre and is recommended at one sachet per day. As such, at this dosage level, this is unlikely to deliver the full range of expected benefits of increased intake of fibre.

This product is reasonable value.
