Tampa radio listeners learn why pharmacist prefers Sunfiber to over-the-counter laxatives

Why rely on over-the-counter medications with potentially dangerous side effects when you can promote healing naturally? During an interview on Senior Voice America’s Health, Wealth & Wisdom Radio, award-winning holistic pharmacist Sherry Torkos explained that laxatives may cause a condition called “lazy colon”, which occurs when your body “becomes dependent on the laxative in order to have a bowel movement. She recommended fiber supplements for people who aren’t getting enough fiber through their diets. Torkos prefers soluble Sunfiber because “it’s clear, odorless, [and] tasteless. You can mix it with water, juice, whatever you like and it doesn’t get thick.” Sunfiber is made from natural guar gum and is a prebiotic, stimulating the growth of beneficial gut bacteria. Unlike other fiber powders, Sunfiber does not cause uncomfortable gas and bloating. It’s also truly regulating, helping to manage both constipation and diarrhea. Sunfiber is available at drug stores and GNC as an ingredient in a growing number of quality products.
