Metamucil Psyllium Husk Capsules vs NOW Psyllium Husk Caps

Both are psyllium husk capsules, so the real choice is dose and capsule material. Metamucil delivers more soluble fiber per serving (1.8 g) and is the brand most people recognize, with a 4.6 rating across thousands of reviews. NOW packs 360 vegetarian capsules with 1.4 g psyllium plus 100 mg apple pectin per serving, which suits vegetarians and people who want a larger supply. Pick Metamucil for a stronger per-serving fiber dose and a familiar name; pick NOW for veg capsules and a bigger bottle.

• Choose the Metamucil if you want the higher soluble fiber dose per serving and the brand most doctors and reviewers mention by name.
• Choose the NOW if you avoid gelatin capsules or want a large vegetarian-capsule supply with added apple pectin.
