GummyTalk Forum

Hey all, so I've been traveling nonstop for work (digital nomad life, you know how it is) and my sleep schedule was completely wrecked. My doc suggested trying fiber gummies to help regulate things since my diet on the road is... inconsistent at best. Been taking them for about 3 weeks now, and honestly my sleep is only slightly better. BUT here's the crazy part - my skin has never looked clearer! I used to break out constantly from stress and airplane air, but now it's like I have this weird glow. Anyone else experience something like this? Wasn't expecting a skincare bonus from fiber supplements lol.

Frank, that's fascinating! I'm also always on the move (currently writing this from a co-working space in Bali). I started taking fiber gummies last month to help with digestion since eating local food can be rough on my system. I haven't noticed much skin difference, but my anxiety levels have dropped significantly. I thought it was just the beach vibes, but now I'm wondering if the gummies are helping my gut health which is connected to stress? The mind-gut-skin axis is real! What brand are you using? Maybe the specific formulation matters.

Interesting thread! As someone who follows a strict keto diet, fiber is crucial since many veggies are carb-heavy. I've been taking fiber gummies for 2 years primarily for digestive regularity. Never thought about skin or sleep benefits, but now that you mention it - my chronic joint pain has improved dramatically since starting them. I always attributed it to keto reducing inflammation, but maybe the fiber is helping too? The gut microbiome affects everything. Frank, are your gummies sugar-free? Many have hidden carbs that could kick you out of ketosis.

Nancy - I'm using the VitaFusion brand, they have a bit of sugar but nothing crazy. Pat, that's wild about your joints! Mine are sugar-free (the brand has both options). I'm starting to think these little gummies are doing more than just 'keeping things moving' if you know what I mean. Maybe we're all experiencing different benefits because our bodies needed different things? My travel buddy just ordered some after hearing about my skin - will report back if he notices anything unexpected!

Pat makes a great point about inflammation! I read somewhere that soluble fiber can reduce systemic inflammation. Maybe that's why Frank's skin cleared up (less inflammation) and my anxiety decreased (inflammation affects neurotransmitters). This is making me want to research more. Thanks for sharing everyone - sometimes the best discoveries are accidental! Safe travels to my fellow nomads, and Pat, keep rocking that keto lifestyle!
