Today’s episode is sponsored by Sunfiber. Sunfiber is a prebiotic fiber supplement that is gut-friendly as a soluble, low FODMAP fiber. Sunfiber-containing products typically contain between 5-7 grams of fiber, and it mixes into water or food without adding color, texture, or flavor. That means you can easily add this to your routine to increase your intake and benefit the balance of your gut without the symptoms.
