This is a delicious Metamucil smoothie with mango and pineapple that contains healthy ingredients that work so well together.
I struggle with chronic constipation, and I often find myself needing to clear out my bowels. I love making high fiber smoothies, but sometimes I need an extra boost.
This is where fiber supplements come in handy. I love adding Metamucil powder to my smoothies because it adds a great dose of fiber, but it’s also tasteless, which doesn’t ruin my smoothies.
Does Metamucil Work In a Smoothie?
Can you put Metamucil in a smoothie? Yes, Metamucil works great in smoothies. However, always choose the powdered version!
A teaspoon of powdered Metamucil is more than enough. Metamucil is also almost completely flavourless, which means it can work with any type of smoothie.
If you need a boost of fiber to your protein smoothie or smoothies that don’t naturally have much fiber, then adding a bit of Metamucil can a be a convenient way to do so.
