Husk Orange Drink Sachets, Pack of 30

My go to relief sachets just as good as its well known counterpart but much cheaper easy to mix, works well

I found these sachets very effective, and they have a pleasant taste.The only problem is, as others have mentioned, they are quite difficult to mix.

This product contains - Irradiated Ispaghula Husk (Plantago Ovata) 3.5g, Pregelatinised Starch, Citric Acid Monohydrate, Natural Flavouring, Sweetener (Aspartame), Colour (Beta-Carotene).That 'other branded one' contains-3.5g Ispaghula Husk B.P. in an Orange Flavoured Base containing Aspartame E951 and Saccharin Sodium Sweeteners, Potassium Bicarbonate, Sodium Bicarbonate, Polysorbate 80, Silica Colloidal Anhydrous, Citric Acid and Beta - Carotene and Riboflavine Sodium Phosphate Colouring.That other branded one is normally twice the price.Not a strong taste, just like weak kids orange juice.I mixed it in a sports drink type bottle and shook it for 30 seconds. Not at all gritty when I mixed it this way.Drink a full glass of water or more after each dose, it helps the process , don't take more than it says thinking it will help, it won't ,it will do the opposite .It works by absorbing water in the bowel and so increasing the bulk of the stool hleping regulate bowel movement. It also softens the stool, reducing straining, so if you take too much I don't think you will get the result you were hoping for .

This product really works for me. I ordered a second batch of two boxes.

I like the fact that this is cheaper than the Fybogel and I like the way it works in exactly the same way. It also mixes reasonably well if you give it a short whisking. I do have to say that the taste is just very bland and does not encourage you to want to take any more. The taste is nothing like the branded version. To be honest it does not taste like anything I have ever tasted before!I have tried a full box of these and decided that I will not be buying anymore because the original Fybogel tastes far better and does mix much easier. I suppose we really do get what we pay for.

Nice orange flavoured fibre supplement to help you go. Can confirm works as intended. If you need a bit more fibre in your diet these are a neat hack, in an easy to take form.

I ordered these as they are less expensive than the Fybogel and to be honest, they do the same job. The reason only 4 stars is the taste and the fact it does not dissolve very well. The taste is very artificial and you can taste the sweeteners in it which overwhelmed any orange. U like the fy gel which dissolves with a quick stir, this product remains at the top ot the glass and I had to whisk to try to get it so drinkable.

It helps with bowel movement a lot!!
