Fiber One Brownies taste great and are a God send for preggo mommies who need that extra boost of fiber, BUT...the main ingredient is Chicory Root. An herb that we should avoid during pregnancy. Last summer I was eating one daily and after two trips to the bathroom I was bleeding and ultimately miscarried. Now I can't say for certain this is what caused it but after doing some looking online and other message boards, I am not the only one who thinks they may have found the reason for a miscarriage. There are no warnings on the label, just listing the ingredient. Please be aware and do not eat this product.
Re: Fiber One Brownies-DO NOT EAT (Loss Mentioned)
Please edit your post with a warning to say "Loss mentioned". I totally wasn't expecting to read that in a post titled "Fiber One brownies - do not eat".
First I'm sorry for your previous loss. But looking for a "reason" for a miscarriage is a long dead end road. You will only depress yourself.
In reference to the beware of Fiber one brownies. Unless there a medical studies supporting this claim I would be careful associating miscarriages with Fiber One brownies.

From all the information I can find it is unproven of Chicory Root is dangerous during pregnancy.
The main benefit of Chicory root is as a digestive aid. Because Chicory contains inulin (it makes you pee) in some cases it may not be a good idea to take during pregnancy because of dehydration, dehydration can lead to contractions.
2. Who are you?
@gzmijewski. People who are new to this board are welcome to post. However you never even introduced yourself. So the "who are you?" questions are justified. How would you respond to a stranger walking up to you while you're in the grocery store giving you unsolicited advice about Fiber One Brownies? I know I'd be a little freaked out.

So I see you are concerned enough about us to take my advice & edit your post to warn others that it contains a loss mentioned. You're a real jewel.
Piss off.
