Foster & Thrive Calcium Polycarbophil — 625 mg Caplets (90-Count)
Rediscover digestive comfort and regularity with Foster & Thrive Calcium Polycarbophil — a gentle, reliable bulk-forming laxative designed to support healthy bowel movements and relieve occasional constipation. With 90 caplets per bottle, it’s a practical and long-lasting addition to your wellness routine.
How It Works — Gentle, Fiber-Like Support for Your Digestive System
- Bulk-Forming Laxative for Softer, Easier Stools
- Each 625 mg caplet contains calcium polycarbophil, a widely used bulk-forming laxative that absorbs water in the intestines to add bulk and softness to stool, making it easier to pass with less strain.
- Encourages Regular, Comfortable Bowel Movements
- By increasing stool volume and stimulating natural intestinal movement, this supplement helps restore regularity — ideal for occasional constipation or irregular bowel habits.
- Gentle & Non-Stimulant
- Unlike stimulant laxatives that trigger strong intestinal contractions, calcium polycarbophil works more gently — helping you avoid cramping or discomfort often associated with stronger laxatives.
Product Highlights — What You Get
- 625 mg per Caplet — A standard, effective dose for managing constipation and supporting regular bowel movements.
- 90-Count Bottle — Ample supply to cover several weeks of occasional use — economical and convenient.
- Easy to Use — Taken orally with a full glass of water; no complicated preparation or special diets needed.
Who This Supplement Is Good For
- Foster & Thrive Calcium Polycarbophil is ideal for:
- Adults experiencing occasional constipation or irregular digestion due to diet, lifestyle changes, or dehydration.
- Individuals who prefer a mild, non-stimulant, fiber-like solution to support healthy bowel habits.
- Those looking for a long-lasting, affordable laxative option that doesn’t rely on harsh chemical stimulants or fiber powders.
- Anyone wanting a simple, effective way to promote regularity when natural fiber intake (fruits, vegetables, whole grains) isn’t sufficient.
Important Use & Safety Tips
- Always take with a full glass (8 oz / 240 mL) of water or other liquid — since calcium polycarbophil works by absorbing water. Without enough fluid, it may swell too much, potentially causing choking or obstruction.
- Effects may take 12–72 hours to appear — bulk-forming laxatives generally don’t work instantly.
- For occasional use — avoid relying on laxatives long-term unless advised by a healthcare provider. If symptoms persist beyond a few days, or you experience severe pain, blood in stool, or other concerning signs, consult a doctor.
- As with any supplement or laxative, combine usage with adequate hydration, dietary fiber, and healthy lifestyle habits for better digestive health.
