pink_lemonadePsyllium fiber—the fiber in Metamucil—helps lower your cholesterol. Every morning, I start my day with a glass of water with Metamucil Fiber Powdered Drink Mixes. My favorite is the Pink Lemonade Flavor because it’s easy to drink in water. I frequently use the Berry Burst Flavor in smoothies or oatmeal.

There are many wonderful tools on the site like a unique system to Calculate Your Fiber as well as a Body Mass Index (BMI) calculator.

Use the Body Mass Index (BMI) calculator to see if losing a moderate amount of weight could improve your heart health.

allhearttScientists have identified 40 foods that can help reduce, prevent, and even reverse heart disease. Those 40 foods—among them chocolate, red wine, tropical fruits, almonds and avocados can be easily incorporated into your diet. WomenHeart’s All Heart Family Cookbook has 175 recipes that include one or more of these heart-healthy foods, and the first section details, food by food, in easily understandable (even occasionally funny) language, why they’re good for you. The recipes are accessible and appealing, if not especially original. It’s quickly become my new favorite cookbook and I look forward to trying a new recipe every opportunity I get!

  1. I have been taking the Metamucil Fiber and found out that there is FD&C Blue 1, Red 40 and Yellow 6 Aluminum Lake “inactive” ingredients. As aluminum is considered a causative factor for Alzheimers Disease, how does Proctor Gamble have the ability to sell this product that can potentially be dangerous?
