Back in the day, things were simpler. Grandma ate most of her meals at home and added more “roughage” when things slowed down. These days? We're constantly on the move, rarely hitting our daily fiber goals, and when we finally go shopping for a fiber supplement, the choices are overwhelming.
Let’s cut through the clutter. Here are three key things to look at when choosing a fiber supplement:
Gluten Content
For anyone with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease, this one’s non-negotiable. Regular Girl (powered by Sunfiber®) is 100% gluten-free, zero trace, zero worry. But heads up: according to FDA guidelines, fiber supplements labeled “gluten-free” can still contain up to 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten. That may be fine for some, but not for everyone. Read those labels carefully.
Ingredient Simplicity
Have you ever flipped over a supplement bottle and felt like you needed a chemistry degree? We keep it simple. Regular Girl’s fiber is made from just one natural ingredient, partially hydrolyzed guar gum, also known as Sunfiber. It’s gentle, clinically proven, and even shows up in everyday foods like yogurt and smoothies.
Other products might list a long parade of ingredients like cellulose, methylcellulose, inulin, acacia, psyllium, polydextrose, or beta-glucans. If you're aiming for ease and transparency, one ingredient you can trust is a breath of fresh air.
Calorie Count
Every calorie counts, especially when your health app reminds you how long it takes to burn one off. Regular Girl has just 10 calories per serving, which is about half the calories found in many other leading fiber supplements. It’s not a huge number, but every bit of balance helps.
The Bottom Line
If you're craving more pectin, go grab an apple (delicious, but about 80 calories). But if you’re looking for a clean, effective fiber supplement that keeps things regular, without added sugar, gluten, or an ingredients list a mile long, Regular Girl has your back (and your gut).
