I just read a post about taking metamucil 15 min before meal. Someone please explain its signifigance. Is it for regularity, keeping you full or just for the fiber that you don't get in low/no carb diets. Will it help me lose more weight?

Hi Jen,


Metamucil will actually lower the Glycemic Index of any meal.

Yes, I believe the pills will have the same effect.
