Metamucil is the only leading brand that contains plant-based psyllium fiber that helps promote digestive health and regularity.
Metamucil, through its gelling action, helps slow sugar absorption from the digestive tract; research has shown that psyllium fiber can help maintain healthy blood sugar levels when looking at both fasting blood sugar levels and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) – an indicator of average blood sugar over the previous 2 – 3 months.
