Irregular bowel movements or persistent constipation can lead to a bloated feeling and daily discomfort. When your bowels are not functioning optimally, this affects your vitality and general well-being. Metamucil Orange Sugar-free offers a responsible way to stimulate bowel function by using natural fibres that soften the stool and facilitate passage.
- Promotes natural bowel movements by softening the intestinal contents and increasing volume.
- Non-irritating effect thanks to the mild swelling of the fibres in the bowel.
- Sugar-free formula with a fresh orange flavour for pleasant intake.
- Easy to dose via sachets, which helps to maintain a consistent routine.
How it works
The active ingredient in Metamucil, Ispaghula husk (psyllium fibre), has the ability to absorb many times its own weight in water. This creates a soft, voluminous filling in the bowels. This filling provides a natural stimulus to the intestinal wall, which activates bowel movement (peristalsis). This process supports smooth bowel movements without chemically irritating the bowels.
