Can I stop taking my fiber supplement when I eat The Friendly 7 Superfood or Bars?

Empower Net Products FAQ
Each individual will need to make that determination for themselves. You should examine your diet and decide how much fiber you need to satisfy your own health demands.

I took the superfood product a month or two and didn't notice anything so should I stop taking it?

BioSuperfood-BioPreparation FAQ
Superfood products such as micro-algae are not only a whole food, but also are a highly concentrated superfood delivering much more nutrients, antioxidants, etc. per gram when compared to other foods.

Therefore, the benefits from taking this concentrated product cannot be equaled by simply eating a healthy diet or taking regular supplements.

When taking any supplement, how much should I take?

If the condition you are taking the supplement for is minor and not serious, then you should take the dosage recommended on the label. However, if your condition is more severe, then you may double or even triple the recommended dosage. Taking up to three times more is within safe limits. If taking a larger dose, once your symptoms subside, always try reducing the dosage and see if you can maintain the same results. If not, increase the dosage again. Each body needs what it needs.

I don't see a problem with taking a daily multivitamin with 100% of the Daily Recommended Intake.
