What is UniFiber®?
UniFiber®, unlike most fiber supplements, is insoluble (like the fiber found in nuts and whole grains). Insoluble fiber does not require water to do its job, so it does not cause the gas or bloating associated with many other fiber supplements. In addition, since UniFiber is an ultra-fine, grit-free, tasteless powder, it can be added to your favorite recipe without changing the flavor.
How does UniFiber work?
UniFiber adds bulk to your stool which helps food pass more quickly through the stomach and intestines, helping to prevent and relieve occasional constipation.
UniFiber is safe for everyone in your family including children and pregnant women. (For children under 6 years, ask your doctor or pharmacist.) For years it has been a popular choice for those on restrictive diets and renal patients.
Microcrystalline cellulose, maltodextrin, xanthan gum
UniFiber can be taken up to 3 times daily or as recommended by a doctor or pharmacist. Generally produces effect in 12-72 hours.
12 years old to adults - One tablespoon of UniFiber up to 3 times daily.
Children 6-11 years old - ½ tablespoon up to 2 times daily.
Children under 6 years - Ask your doctor or pharmacist.
Preparation (in a liquid): Stir UniFiber into any beverage (water, fruit juice or milk). It is not recommended that you mix UniFiber into carbonated beverages.
There is no minimum liquid requirement for UniFiber. If you choose to take your UniFiber in a liquid, whatever amount of liquid you are comfortable taking it with is sufficient.
Preparation (in food): Stir UniFiber into soft food (cereal, applesauce, mashed potatoes or pudding). You can also add UniFiber to your favorite recipes. It is tasteless and doesn't change the flavor of cooked or baked foods.
Note: Because UniFiber will not gel or swell, it can be administered through a feeding tube.
Why should I cleanse?
UniFiber is an excellent choice of fiber supplement for maintaining colon health all year long. In addition to adding fiber to your diet, many people benefit from cleansing the colon annually with a fiber cleanse.
Since 1998, the Colonix Advanced Internal Cleansing Program has been one of the most popular colon cleanse systems – with over 2 million programs sold. Colonix Program is a 30-day, three-component fiber cleanse powered by more than 40 herbs.
Think of a cleanse as 'spring cleaning' for your body, a way to gently and effectively kick-start your natural elimination process. Colonix fiber assists by acting like a sponge in the digestive tract: it expands and becomes spongy, dissolving and absorbing toxins, eventually flushing them out of the body.*
