Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have no issue with the product taste, or working it into a dish. I was excited to have such a low calorie option to replace noodles, however this product is a bit risky. I woke up with really painful abdominal cramping. At first i had just thought i was sick, but doing my research i found that this product and others like it can be dangerous. It has a chance of congealing and plugging up your GI tract, causing extreme discomfort and constipation. I highly suggest you do your research, and decide for yourself, but i feel this product needs a warning label or something. There have been appeals for FDC to do this, and cases where patients have had to get the obstruction removed surgically. While this is an extreme case, the pain and cramping seems to be pretty common. Sad, because the noodles do keep you full for a very low calorie cost, so help supplement a healthy diet in that regard, but this discomfort isn't a good trade off. Wish i could return them, but amazon policy won't let me. Hope i can just get others to research a bit before deciding to buy or not. I would highly suggest against it if you have slower motility. If you do get them, make sure you drink a ton of water (i drink a little under a gallon a day and still had issues) and don't sit for too long afterwards, as this can increase the risk of more discomfort or constipation. Definitely only stick to one packet at most between bowel movements.
