A. B. Salem, born into the Paradesi Congregation of Jews in the erstwhile Kingdom of Cochin (now part of the southern Indian state of Kerala), was a lawyer, labour union organizer, ardent Indian nationalist and political leader, Zionist and the man responsible for the mass aliyah or emigration of the Cochin Jews to Israel in the 1950s. However, he chose to stay back in his beloved state of Kerala.


Apart from being a towering leader of the Cochin Jewish community, Salem was a founder-member of the first Legislative Council in the Kingdom of Cochin from 1925 to 1931 and again from 1939 to 1945. A strong follower of the Gandhian principle of non-violent civil disobedience, he was a member of the Lahore Session of the Indian National Congress which passed the resolution calling for complete independence from the British.


Salem is also remembered for his efforts to achieve ritual equality for a group of Jews who were kept apart from full participation in synagogue affairs for decades - based on their perceived low-born status and which was contrary to Jewish law. His personal diaries about life in Cochin and the aliyah are now with the Magnes Collection of Jewish Art and Life in Berkeley, California.

The best no sugar natural fiber
Even if you have no problems with your dietary system, fiber is an excellent way to protect your lower GI system. I use the no sugar version as I want the fiber, but I want the extra carbs in the regular version. Regular no sugar is fine, and has no problems with taste. Every so often, I treat myself to this better stevia sweetened version. I don’t take either one 3 times a day, as recommended, but I do take it every morning. If you like the regular sugar free version, give this a try. Since I take it every day, I do like occasionally switching to the better version. Read the labels of your fiber supplement products, if you take them. Very few give you the amount of fiber that this does, and you control exactly how much fiber you want. If you read up on the benefits of adding to your daily fiber intake, you will wonder why you haven’t been adding this to your daily healthy supplements This is a very effective way to protect yourself, and most other products don’t come close!

Great product for bloat and regularity
This works! I try to take a big tablespoon in the morning and if Im feeling bloated maybe one at night. Within a day or two, it helps you get regular! And it makes you go..and not loose, runny stool either. It leaves with that “empty stomach” feeling. I have this set up on auto delivery. Its a bit expensive but like that it has stevia, so am willing to pay the extra. It tastes like OJ but drink it asap or it becomes thick and slime like within a few minutes.

More expensive and not as sweet as regular Metamucil, but no aspartame
I switched to the Stevia variant of Metamucil to cut down my daily intake of aspartame sweetener. The taste definitely isn’t as sweet and invariably some might not like that. I thought the same initially, but after a few dosages of the less-sweet Stevia Meta I’m now use to the taste. For me—less aspartame in my diet is more important than having an overly sweet product. The product functions the same way and is very effective in keeping you regular and the additional fiber in your diet is very important. Try it, but keep in mind it may take some time getting use to the less sweet flavor.

Incredible…
This stuff is incredible. I used to take a psyllium supplement semi regularly but would always stop after a week or so of getting tired of it. This stevia version of Metamucil is better than any fiber I’ve ever taken. Tastes great, dissolves immediately, works incredibly well, and doesn’t get old or repetitive like other versions. Flavorful but not overly sweet. It’s amazing what it does to your poops too. Unbelievable.

Not real sweet, but no sugar
I have been taking Metamucil with real sugar regularly for 20+ years. I became concerned about the amount of sugar I was consuming daily and cannot tolerate aspartame. So, I jumped to buy this when I saw Stevia. I quickly noticed that this version is not sweet. It’s sort of bitter. Also, the texture is different due to not having sugar granules mixed in. It also converts to a gel like texture quicker. I later noticed you use less of this product per serving than the one with sugar (read the label!). I have found the best way to take this is to very quickly (seconds) consume the serving after adding water. Don’t wait too long. I down it like taking a shot out of a shot glass followed quickly by a glass of water. After a while, I got used to the flavor. Overall, I am pleased I am consuming much less sugar and really don’t notice the change anymore.
