Pharma Nord Bio-Fiber is a high fibre supplement which provides insoluble fibre and soluble fibre from lemon peel and sugar beet to compensate for the lack of fibre in modern diets. Fibre supplements are important for a number of things such as supporting regular bowel movements, alleviating constipation and for maintaining good digestion for IBS sufferers..
Dietary fibre is defined as material of plant origin, resistant to breakdown by digestive enzymes until reaching the large intestine. It increases beneficial gut micro-flora, buffers glucose intake and reduces blood lipid levels. Dietary fibre is not just the overall level of fibre in the diet that is important but also the relative amounts of the main types of fibre, lignin, pectin, cellulose and hemicellulose.
Bio-Fiber 80 tablets contain all of the dietary fibre types in appropriate proportions, therefore giving optimal health benefit.

Side Effects: Dietary fibre is generally well tolerated however if the body is not accustomed to a dietary fibre rich diet abdominal discomfort (due to increased gas production resulting from fermentation by intestinal bacteria) may result. It is recommended to increase dietary fibre intake gradually, to give the digestive tract an opportunity to adjust to the change in dietary fibre content. Increased dietary fibre intake should be accompanied by an increased water intake (since dietary fibre adsorbs water), otherwise constipation may result. It is not possible to overdose with dietary fibre. Increased dietary fibre intake may interfere with the absorption of certain types of drugs, which should be taken separately.
Each tablet of Pharma Nord Bio-Fiber contains: Vegetable fibre from sugar beets and citrus peel 460mg. Other ingredients: Polivinylpyrrolidone, Microcrystalline cellulose, Magnesium salts, Silicon dioxide, Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose.
