Super Seed - Vegetarian Whole Food Fiber Supplement with Protein and Omega 3, 1 Lb 5oz (600g) Powder

Good fiber source.

I'm trying to listen to my Dr. for a change and I decided to add more fiber to my diet. I wanted to add a supplement and I tried the orange flavored stuff. It was OK, but I wanted something that tasted more natural than like clumpy Tang with artificial sweetener. I purchased Garden of Life Super Seed based on the ingredients and good reviews and I am very happy with it. Not only am I getting fiber, I'm getting protein, Omega 3 and all the other good stuff it has. I was a little concerned because it had more calories and I'm overweight, but it is actually helping me lose weight by filling me up. I've also used it as a meal by mixing it with skim milk and eating it with 7-grain toast with marmalade or a couple of scrambled eggs. I love it mixed with milk. It goes down like a bran muffin in a drink. I also sometimes drink a glass with water 15 minutes before dinner and I noticed I'm able to control my portions much better. Another reviewer said it is clumpy, and it is, especially if you wait. That is because fiber absorbs water so as time goes on it gets a little thick. The orange stuff works the same way, so either way you have to drink it quickly or maybe water it down a little and mix it up again (or just drink the thick remainder). OK, it doesn't taste like chocolate cake, but it isn't supposed to. I think this stuff tastes great, especially with milk. I find that out of the other high fiber foods I've tried (orange stuff, snack bars) this fills me up the best and I feel like my carb cravings have subsided a little. Over all, I feel my energy level has increased significantly and I have much less mental fog. This isn't due to this particular product per se, but it made it easier for me to increase fiber and lower simple carbs like white flour products and sweets. In addition to this supplement once or twice a day, which is more like a food than a supplement, I'm eating 1 high fiber snack bar a day and trying to eat veggies (I'm allergic to most fruits) at every meal for about 30g of fiber a day. I still eat my favorite bad food (pizza and Chinese food), but I am eating smaller portions-- and not because I'm forcing myself to eat small portions but because I'm full sooner. I feel great and I'm happy Super Seed is part of my daily diet.

came in fast and am very happy with the product! Would recommend it!

I've been using Garden of Life Super Seed regularly, and it's been a great addition to my diet. I mix it with steel-cut oats or add it to smoothies, and it blends in well without overpowering the taste. It helps keep me full longer, which has been great for weight management, and it definitely supports digestion—keeping me regular without any issues. I love that it's packed with fiber and natural ingredients, making it a healthy and effective way to boost my daily nutrition. If you're looking for something to aid digestion, help with weight loss, and keep you feeling full, this is a great option!

I was looking for a product to boost my fiber intake without increasing my net carbs (I live a low carb lifestyle of 60 net carbs or less a day). This product fits the bill. I eat a serving of canned 100% pure pumpkin every day & add this to it. It makes a thick consistency (like pumpkin pie). If you add 2 packs of stevia & 1 serving of half & half & pumpkin pie seasoning or extra cinnamon, it tastes just like real pumpkin pie. Anyone who has recipes with this product, feel free to share them. I noticed a slight taste of apple cinnamon, but very mild. It tastes a lot better than I thought it would. Based on the ingredients, I thought it would be a lot worse. It arrived super fast & was packed well & fresh. I will definitely buy it again. *** follow up *** I purchased this again & was not disappointed. Exp date is 2016 so it is definitely fresh. My only concern now is, I practice a low carb lifestyle & just realized it has beans in it. This is the last rung on the Atkins ladder & I am not sure if it will impact my weight loss. I usually take 1 scoop in the morning mixed with my Nature's Best Carb Zero Isopure Whey Protein Isolate. For an on the go mix, I take this to the gym & just add water. The super seed mix adds thickness to the water & makes for a more pleasant taste and not so watered down result. The chia seeds in the mix gel up after a few minutes, thickening the mixture which makes it great for smoothies & shakes. This product as several benefits for me. It keeps me regular, keeps me fuller longer when mixed in my shakes & also provides nutritional benefits.

Definitely not as good as their Raw Organic Fiber, which they unfortunately appear to have discontinued. Very disappointed about that. If you’re wanting an insoluble fiber supplement (there are two different types of fiber that each do different things and serve different purposes), then this is the next best option since the vast majority of fiber supplements Amazon sells are entirely or almost entirely soluble fiber rather than insoluble fiber. Regarding the two types of fiber: Insoluble fiber: Does not dissolve in water and your body does not digest it. Insoluble fiber provides necessary beneficial flora for your intestinal tract, helping your body better absorb nutrients, lower cholesterol, and keep you regular. This product is about 80% insoluble fiber, with a taste and texture sort of like Malt-O-Meal or Cream of Wheat. This product also has a bit of cinnamon in it, which gives it a bit more appealing taste. Soluble fiber: Dissolves in water, forming a tasteless gummy texture. Soluble fiber helps make you feel full longer and remains in your stomach longer, making you feel full longer so you eat less. It also helps reduce the amount of cholesterol your digestive tract absorbs. This product is about 20% soluble fiber.
