Fiber supplements can help support regular bowel movements, improve cholesterol and blood sugar control, and close common gaps in daily intake when food alone falls short. They work best as a supplement to, not a replacement for, a fiber-rich diet, with slow dose increases, plenty of water, and attention to medication timing.
