Metamucil is a multi-health fiber supplement that helps lower cholesterol to promote heart health* and restore regularity.Made with 100% natural psyllium fiber, Metamucil comes in a variety of forms (powder, wafer and capsule) and flavors (Orange, Pink Lemonade, Berry and unflavored). Diets low in saturated fat and cholesterol that include 7 grams of soluble fiber per day from psyllium husk may reduce the risk of heart disease by lowering cholesterol.
