"Konsyl has changed. Confirmed that the new CEO sold off their milling equipment and now sources it from a third party. It is now ground too fine. It doesn't work at all like the real 'original' that I have been using for the past 20 years for IBS-C. Look elsewhere and please let others know if a suitable replacement is found. Don't waste your money on this! Sad that all of those years of helping people have been washed away by a new CEO looking to increase profits. Argggh!"

"On the advice of my gastro doctor, I was taking 2 capsules per day of psyllium put out by Konsyl until they were discontinued. It came back in powder form, and I find it to be amazing. I take Miralax also, a probiotic also. What a difference in taking the Konsyl psyllium. Just would love it if they came back with the capsules. The powder does not mix very well. People complain about the taste, which I find very tolerable. Hope it helps others the way it is helping me."

"I just started taking Konsyl, and OMG! Life changer!!! I am only on week one, and I think this is the answer I have been looking for! I have suffered from IBS and ulcerative colitis for 40 years. I am in shock, thank you, KONSYL!"

"Konsyl has more grams of fiber than Metamucil. You can get a plain, unflavored version, which is much better than orange. Orange-flavored fiber has much fewer grams of fiber per container. Konsyl settles down my digestive tract."

"Prescribed by my gastroenterologist, it’s been a lifesaver for me. I couldn’t believe how quickly my condition improved with daily use. I hope others will have the same results."

"I have used Metamucil and a variety of such aids in the past to help my irritable bowel and related issues of constipation and hemorrhoids. None of these compares to the efficacy of Konsyl. It isn't carried everywhere, and it can be pricey, but it is available online, and it is far superior to any other product of its kind that I have used."
