Viscofiber^® is Clinically Proven and All Natural

Dietary fiber is a plant-origin substance that humans lack the enzymes to digest and absorb. Instead of entering the bloodstream, fiber passes through our bodies. Although it has no calories, fiber has proven to have significant health benefits.

All Fibers Are Not Created Equal

As part of a healthy diet, fiber can be obtained from various sources including fruits, vegetables and grains. Most sources of fiber contain both soluble and insoluble fiber.

Insoluble fiber passes through the intestines largely intact as bulk.  By increasing stool volume and aiding normal bowel contractions, insoluble fiber helps promote regularity, reduce digestive complaints like constipation and remove toxic wastes from your digestive organs.

Soluble fiber attracts water, dissolving to form a soft gel which traps fats, cholesterol, dietary sugars and bile to slow their absorption by the digestive tract and carries them out of the body as waste.

Viscofiber^® is derived from oat grain to produce the highest quality concentrated source of soluble fiber available today.  It can bind dietary cholesterol and slow the absorption of glucose, helping to avoid spiking of blood sugar through slower digestion.* It also prolongs emptying of the stomach providing a feeling of fullness and aiding in weight control.*

Through a unique, gentle production process developed by scientists at The University of Alberta, Canada – Viscofiber^® retains its natural qualities while delivering up to 12 times the soluble fiber found in a similar amount of oat bran.  It takes four bowls of oatmeal to meet the FDA recommended daily intake of fiber provided by only six grams of Viscofiber^®.

Production of Viscofiber^® involves a patented extraction method. Enzymes and alcohol washes are used to extract starch and protein while leaving the soluble fiber intact within the cell walls. This preserves its viscosity (thickness) and ensures its effectiveness. Clinical trials have shown that the higher the soluble fiber content in a dietary supplement or food product, the easier it is to achieve the health benefits.
