Is it ok to add fiber to my shakes twice a day?  Like Citracel?  Having a hard time.........  Especially now that I've started eating protein/veggies again.  The numbers are still going down though (almost 10 pounds so far).

    Im not for sure, but I know i read that you can add metamucil, so I would guess you should be fine...   one of the nutritionist will respond though. they are good about that.

      Benefiber was on sale, but all they had was orange.  So I tried it in my shake tonight and it was good!  Kind of like an Orange Julius!

        Hello loraleekim,
         
        For a fiber rich food source, I suggest adding about 2 tablespoons of ground flaxseed to the Almased shake. Psyllium husk and chia seeds are also great.
