SlimStyles® Fiber Blend by Natural Factors- Appetite Control Fiber Blend with PGX

Description

A breakthrough product in the SlimStyles® Program is SlimStyles® Appetite Control fibre Blend with PGX™. This is not a meal replacement drink. It is an almost zero calorie, naturally flavoured and sweetened drink mix that provides all of the benefits of PGX™ when additional nutrients and calories are not desired. This product contains 5 grams of PGX™ per serving.

The key active ingredient in the SlimStyles® Meal Replacement, and SlimStyles Appetite Control and fibre Drink is PXG™. PGX, short for PolyGlycopleX, is a blend of naturally-occurring water-soluble fibres that together can absorb more than 600 times their weight in water. A key component of PGX is glucomannan, a soluble fiber from the root of konjac. It is 3 times more viscous than guar and 7 times more viscous than psyllium. With this, and the other components it contains, PGX has a viscosity 3 to 5 times greater than glucomannan alone. PGX™ is the result of many years of intensive clinical and laboratory research at the University of Toronto, and in collaboration with Canadian Center for Functional Medicine.
