What is dietary fiber?
Fiber is a complex carbohydrate which is found in plants. The body
does not digest fiber; instead the fiber component of food passes
through the digestive system. There are two types of fiber - soluble and
insoluble fiber. Much like it sounds, soluble fiber is fiber that
dissolves in water and insoluble fiber is fiber that does not. The best
way to get fiber is through a whole food diet of fruits, vegetables,
grains, seeds and legumes.
The role fiber plays in a healthy diet became apparent at the turn of
the century. Diets previously high in dietary fiber were altered to
include the new “wonder foods,” refined sugar and milled flour. The
increased use of these foods, which were devoid of dietary fiber, led to
a theory that connected a lack of fiber and the overall state of
health. Several generations later, up to 100 million Americans
experience some form of occasional digestive discomfort.
Super Seed was formulated to include naturally occurring
soluble and insoluble fiber from carefully selected grains, seeds and
legumes that are easy on the gastrointestinal system. Super Seed does
NOT include psyllium husk, which provides no nutritional value.

How does Super Seed support normal gut flora balance?
Super Seed contains fiber components that act as prebiotics to support normal gut flora balance.†
Why is dietary fiber important?
Vibrant health begins in the colon, and supplying your body with
adequate dietary fiber every day is essential to colon function and
overall health.†
What makes Super Seed better than other fiber supplements?
Many other fiber supplements rely on insoluble fiber alone and
provide very little in the way of nutrition. Super Seed contains both
naturally occurring soluble and insoluble fiber from carefully selected
grains, seeds and legumes that are easy on the gastrointestinal system.
Additionally, Super Seed contains no psyllium.
Suggested Use:
Mix 1 scoop with any food or beverage (room temperature or cooler)
and consume immediately. Super Seed is a powder blend that can be mixed
in smoothies, vegetable or fruit juices, cereal, yogurt or soup. In
fact, Super Seed can add nutritional value and fiber to nearly any food
or beverage.
