My Story

When I first began raising my kids here in Berkeley, most of our meals were simple things you could make from whatever came home from the farmers market — beans, grains, fresh vegetables, nothing fancy. Back then, you didn’t have to think about getting enough fiber… because it was already in everything you were eating. But somewhere along the way, our food got a little too “convenient.” Boxes turned into pouches, vegetables turned into powders, and what used to be whole ingredients slowly got shaved down and packaged up until most of the good parts, including the fiber, went missing. I hear young folks talking now, wondering why everyone suddenly needs some sort of supplement. And the truth is, most people aren’t doing anything wrong… our food system just changed around us. You can get all your fiber from whole foods, plenty of people do, but you really have to work at it these days. Especially if you’re busy, or picky, or trying to hit protein goals, or simply not in the mood to chew through a mountain of lentils after a long day. So for the last thirty-odd years, I’ve kept a jar of plain corn fiber on my kitchen shelf. One ingredient I recognize. One scoop I don’t have to think twice about. It’s not meant to replace good food, just to fill the gaps life tends to create. And if you’re anything like my own children (who grew up on home cooking but now live for deadlines and takeout), this little daily habit might make eating in the real world a bit gentler on your digestion. No trends, no blends, no sprinkles of magic berries; just one humble ingredient doing what it’s always done, long before food came in shiny wrappers. If this helps bring a bit more “whole-food living” back into your busy routine, well… that'll make me happy.

  • Natural Gut Health Support

    Your body knows what to do with real, simple fiber. One small scoop each day helps keep things moving comfortably and naturally — the way it used to when most meals started in the kitchen, not a package.

  • Only One Ingredient

    No blends, no mystery powders, no “proprietary” anything. Just a gentle, highly-purified corn fiber made for people who want less clutter in their pantry and in their ingredient list.

  • Easy to Mix Into Anything

    Hot drinks, cold drinks, smoothies, oatmeal — it disappears like it was never there. No grit, flavor or fuss. Only a lasting daily habit.

Why Fibersol?

When I first started paying attention to fiber, I wasn’t looking for anything fancy. Just something gentle, something that could slip into a cup of tea or a bowl of oatmeal without asking for too much attention. Over the years, I learned that not all fibers behave the same. Some can be a little… enthusiastic. Others don’t dissolve well, or bump up the texture in a way that gets a little louder every sip.

Fibersol is the opposite of all that. It’s quiet. It dissolves smooth, sits light on the stomach, and does its work without announcing itself; the way ingredients used to behave in a simpler kitchen. It’s made from corn, yes, but more importantly, it’s a kind of fiber your body recognizes and knows what to do with. No grit, no bloat, no upset. Just steady, reliable support for the part of your digestion that modern eating tends to forget.

I’ve tried enough things over the years to know: if I’m going to recommend one scoop of anything, it ought to be the kind that blends in easily and helps consistently. Fibersol does exactly that. And if you ask me, that’s worth keeping in my pantry.

How I Use It Every Morning

Most days, I’m up before the house wakes, puttering around the kitchen the way I always have. I scoop a little into whatever I’m already drinking — tea if it’s chilly, coffee if I need to get moving, or just a glass of water when I’m keeping things simple. It disappears quickly with a good stir, no fuss at all.

If you’re new to fiber, start with half a scoop and let your body get acquainted. Then work your way up. The trick, like most things in life, is consistency. A little bit every day goes a long way.

That’s really all there is to it. Just fold it into the routine you already have.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it taste like corn?

Not even a little.

Even though the fiber starts its life as corn, the part we use is just the gentle, soluble fiber—no flavor, no sweetness, no smell. Once it hits your coffee, tea, or water, it disappears like it was never there. The only thing you’ll notice is that your stomach is a bit happier the rest of the day.

Why only one ingredient?

Because our grandmothers never needed a label with 47 things on it.

Most fiber products today are blends, flavors, dyes, gums, and “natural essences” that don’t need to be there. This is one honest ingredient: a soluble fiber that supports digestion the way whole foods used to. No extra fluff, nothing trendy—just the good part.

Is it safe for daily use?

Yes.

This soluble fiber (Fibersol®) has been studied for decades and is widely used by dietitians for everyday digestive support. It’s gentle, it’s slow-fermenting, and it’s made for long-term use. If you’re new to fiber, just start with half a scoop and work your way up—your gut will tell you when it’s ready.

How is this different from Benefiber or Metamucil?

Think of those as the big grocery-store cousins.

Metamucil uses psyllium husk, which can gel up, thicken, and come with a bit of texture. Benefiber is similar to Fibersol, but ours skips the flavorings, fillers, and commercial-brand vibe. Krista’s Pantry is simply one ingredient—nothing powdered in, flavored in, or colored in.

Just fiber, the way a pantry would keep it.

Will it make me run to the bathroom?

Nope.

This isn’t that kind of fiber.

It’s slow, gentle, and meant to nudge things along—not sound any alarms. Most people don’t even feel it working until they realize they feel… well, normal again.
