Fibre-sure capsules

Overall rating
Value for money
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 product is in capsule form, each of which contains 0.5g of fibre. It is recommended at 2-6 capsules per day. As such, even at the highest dosage level, this product barely provides a meaningful addition to total fibre intake and so is unlikely to deliver the expected benefits of increased intake of fibre. Additionally, in the opinion of the SC expert panel, long term compliance in taking six capsules every day would be poor.
This product is expensive for what it provides.
