Can pregnant women take this?
Like any new food while pregnant, please consult with your physician.
Will it make me gassy?
It depends. Gas is a natural product of fermentation in the large intestine so the amount of gas produced will depend on the fiber’s fermentation characteristics. Most insoluble fibers won’t produce gas because they are not fermented. However, some people do experience flatulence when they eat more fermentable fiber than they are accustomed to consuming. With a diet rich in fermentable fiber, there may temporarily be an increase in gas, but the body eventually adapts.
*Pro Tip: to help reduce flatulence, increase fiber intake gradually. If you are accustomed to a high fiber diet, you likely won’t notice any difference when you eat foods with added fiber.
