FAQ 1: Can I get all my daily fibre needs from Benefiber?

Benefiber should be used only to boost your fibre intake, not replace a balanced diet. It is important to note, fibre intake should be increased slowly over a period of time. A sudden, large intake of fibre can cause gas and abdominal pain.

FAQ 2: Why is fibre important?

Dietary fibre is the part of a plant which is not digested. It is found in cereals, fruits and vegetables. The main role of fibre is to keep the digestive system healthy. Fibre is important in maintaining digestive health. Diets high in fibre improve the health of the digestive system by adding bulk and attracting water. This allows the faeces to pass easily.

FAQ 3: Will Benefiber have an immediate effect on regularity?

Adding fibre to your diet does not have an immediate laxative effect. It may take several days to feel the benefits and maximum effect is seen with everyday use.

FAQ 4: Do you need to drink more water when you take Benefiber?

Because fibre absorbs water, you should increase your water intake. It is always a good idea to drink plenty of fluids, but no need to drink an excessive amount. Start by trying to drink an extra glass of water a day.
