Our Verdict
Metamucil is the gold standard in fiber supplementation. The psyllium husk has more clinical evidence than any other fiber type for regularity, cholesterol reduction, and blood sugar management. The capsule form is convenient but delivers less fiber per serving than the powder — consider the powder if you need maximum fiber.
