Anne, I like the orange Bene-Fiber chewable tablets, great flavor and lots of fiber. When I was in the hospital last year suffering from a 7 day lack of movement of the rectal kind...my friend up in Utah who had suffered years of impacted bowels (eww!) told me the thing that saved her life was Aloe Vera capsules, all natural, easy to take, and easy on the belly, and the bowels will singgggg! She was absolutely right!!! I have never had a problem since, even though I stopped the Bene-Fiber. I do take a Fenugreek capsule as well daily, it keeps the system sweet and working well too.If you should over eat or eat toomuch dry foods like crasckers or chips, take another Aloe, can't take too many. I likie one in the morning and one at night if I haven't moved alot that day....
