What can I expect

when using PGX®?

Start slow, stick with it and you’ll be on your way to a healthier you.

Start taking at least 2.5 g of PGX® with every meal. Be sure to drink at least 250 mL (8 oz) with each dose. Your body needs time to adjust to the increased fibre so don’t get discouraged with any intestinal discomfort, this is normal as your body acclimates.

Right from the get-go.

You will begin to feel more full at meal times without eating as much food as you used to. Once you’re feeling acclimated to PGX, you can begin to increase your dosage of PGX to 5 g with every meal.

The first few weeks.

You may notice that you no longer have cravings in between meals or they have significantly diminished. Be sure to have PGX® Satisfast® Shakes or a couple high-fibre, high-protein (100–150 Kcal) healthy snacks on hand if you’re feeling hungry between meals.
