What do y'all think about those fiber pills?

I don't think I am getting enough fiber in my diet.   Let me be clear - I am NOT having bowel movement problems either way (no diarrhea or constipation).   But I know we are supposed to get in so much fiber and I don't think I'm getting enough. My NUT okayed me to mix one of those fiber powders in with a shake I make it I want to, but I don't like the taste of that. Does anyone have any experience with those fiber pills (like fiber vitamins) they sell at Wal-Mart?   Also, for the NUT/RD on here, do you think they are good or not?

What about sprinkling it on food? I haven’t tried it so I don’t know how bad it tastes.

 

Just a thought

My nut told me to use Benefiber - it is tasteless and you can mix it with anything - even water.  I use it and it really is tasteless - I can't even tell in water.  I think it has like 2.5 grams of fiber per teaspoon.  Also, it won't swell in your pouch like psyllium husk fiber supplements.  I am not a doctor or NUT / RD, but this is what my nut told me.
