I have been seeing C-Lium from the reality show The Biggest Loser Pinoy Edition.. been wanting to buy one and give it a try. So when asked if I can give C-lium a try, I did not hesitate. Last week, these goodies arrived at my doorstep:
Let’s start with C-Lium Fibre.. as I have mentioned I really want to try this product.
Facts about C-Lium FIBRE
C-Lium FIBRE is made from 100% pure psyllium fibre plant material. It helps eliminate constipation, promotes regular bowel movement and assists in removing waste and toxins from the colon and intestines. It is also a natural fat absorber which aids weight and blood sugar management. C-Lium FIBRE helps lower cholesterol level which may reduce the risk of heart disease.
C-Lium FIBRE has no additives, no preservatives, no artificial color, flavor or sweeteners. It is cholesterol, yeast and gluten free.
How To Use C-Lium FIBRE
Take once daily ideally 30 minutes before breakfast. Stir one tablespoon in a half glass of water (or juice) then drink. Drink another glass of water after intake. You can adjust the dosage depending on your fibre need.
My Expereince with C-LIUM FIBRE
My initial reaction when I received this is to check if it is safe for me.. for those of you who does not know, I am still breastfeeding my baby girl. There’s nothing on the packaging that says about breastfeeding and since this one is organic I assume that it is safe for me.. some more research and I am totally convinced that it is safe for breastfeeding moms. Now this can be the perfect product for me. I can manage my weight without having to stop breastfeeding.
I have been taking C-Lium FIBRE for almost a week now. I haven’t noticed anything yet on my weight or on my body size (I guess I’ll have to buy a weighing scale for this) but I did noticed a difference on my bowel movement. From time to time I experienced a hard time pooping and it hurts when this happens.. since I started taking C-Lium FIBRE I noticed that pooping is a lot easier.. I will be a bit brutal.. mas maluwag ang pagtae ko since I used this product. I also noticed the difference on my poop.. it’s larger but softer.. seems like a proof that the FIBRE is really removing waste and toxins from my body.
In the coming days I will try to record my weight and also start to add some serious weight loss activity.. like running and ding zumba. I’ll keep you posted how C-Lium will help me along the way.
Oh by the way, this is how C-Lium FIBRE looks after stirring.. and oh you must take it right after stirring or else you’ll have a hard time swallowing it.. it turns into a sticky mixture in a matter of seconds. Trust me. It does not have a taste but you can feel the texture of the Fibre as you take it.
Another product included on the package is A!Life, a food supplement that targets women and their different needs. A!Life has 6 variants or kinds:
A!Life Restore which contains Injuv™ , a Hyaluronic acid that restores moisture from within, helps erase the signs of aging.
A!Life Trim, contains ampalaya and banaba which helps lower blood sugar levels and eliminate excess weight to keep you trim.
A!Life Control contains Phase 2™ white kidney bean extract that helps block carbohydrates to help control sugar levels and weight.
A!Life Posture for stronger bones and better posture. It contains Calcium and Ostivone, the only non-hormonal nutrient that helps increase bone density and inhibits the loss of healthy bone cells.
A!Life Energy for natural power and extra energy. It contains malunggay, a natural energy booster that is loaded with nutrients, vitamins and amino acids.
A!Life Protect contains Pycogenol that helps defend the body from free radicals, ensuring health that radiates through fairer and blemish- free skin.
A!Life seems promising but I haven’t tried it yet since it is clearly stated on the packaging that breastfeeding and pregnant women can’t use it.. but I can wait :). I still have C-Lium 🙂
I have been trying to lose weight for a time now.. not for vanity reason because I am in love with myself.. but for health reasons.. been having difficulties breathing at night and I noticed that my feet hurts a lot specially when I walk.. a proof that my feet is now having a hard time carrying my weight.. It’s hard to lose weight specially on my case since I am breastfeeding.. you need to eat and eat in order to produce milk and with my part time job, I have more time sitting and less time doing some exercise. I have trying really hard lately and I think with the help of C-Lium FIBRE I can make this happen.

LOURDES ESPANOL says
October 7, 2011 at 5:24 pmI used to drink this then switched to wheatgrass. It takes a little getting used to when drinking.
jheng Ingua says

Ane says
October 7, 2011 at 11:28 pmI don’t need to lose weight yet, but I am definitely going to let my sister know about this.. 😛
Ane says
October 7, 2011 at 11:33 pmJust curious, how does this smell? Is it appetizing?
ELINOR SEMIRA says
October 8, 2011 at 1:09 pmI have tried this product once or twice only because it was kind of hard to swallow…
nicquee says
October 8, 2011 at 3:05 pmThe Hubby has been drinking that for some time now at sabi nga niya, talagang regular ang bowel movement niya. He also runs when he can at maganda na ang katawan niya ngayon. He keeps raving the product to me pero it just occur to me now na baka ganun kasi gusto rin niyang i try ko. Hahaha!
I will give it a shot.
By the way, hubby buys his 1kg pack from a PX store and it costs P750.
giay says
October 8, 2011 at 11:33 pmI was given a sachet of this, try ko pala pero baka naman lalo ako pumayat 😀
Gene says
October 9, 2011 at 2:09 amParang gusto ko ng Restore and Protect.
Hindi naman awkward yung taste ng C-lium?
Karen says
October 9, 2011 at 3:12 amI’ve heard more about C-Lium Fibre before but still afraid to give it a try. Maybe I’ll wait for your results before I personally use it.
reese says
October 9, 2011 at 9:02 amthis is a great review! i’ll share this to my titas
Lyza says
October 9, 2011 at 10:56 pmHi Peh! I’ve heard na about C-Lium Fiber many times before pero I haven’t tried it yet, although gusto ko nga sana but I’m just worried about its taste…but when I read in your review that it doesn’t have a taste, I think i’ll be buying na 🙂
Okay ba din siya to combine sa juice? Thanks!
pehpot says
October 10, 2011 at 12:09 pmhaven’t tried combining it sa juice.. it’s not totally walang lasa but you know it’s not also lasang darak like most fiber drinks do.. pero un lang talaga it’s the texture that will get you..
michelle says
October 11, 2011 at 11:36 am@Lyza: yeah you can take it with juice. I enjoy it better that way 😛 When i have the time, i also mix it with gulaman para jelly shots! haha
Elinor Semira says
October 11, 2011 at 1:59 pmI have tried this product once or twice only because it’s kinda hard to swallow. I think it’s just a matter of getting used to it.
Diana Gener says
October 11, 2011 at 3:23 pmHI. Its ok to take C-lium while you breastfeed. It does not affect lactation and is safe since its natural. However, C-lium is powerful in flushing out toxins and fats from the body to help you look and feel young (i.e. lowers cholesterol, blood sugar levels and weight). C-lium is made of psyllium husk which expands in water, then the toxins and fats binds in it as it forms as a soft bulk. This is then flushed out of the system. To make sure you get the most effect of your medicines and vitamins, be sure to space C-lium intake 2-3 hours before or after.
Mylene M. Calleja says
October 12, 2011 at 8:44 amI think this will solve my problem in pooping, nahihirapan ako minsan, matry nga to. thanks for the info mommy Pehpot!!
Jenny So says
October 14, 2011 at 8:40 amNabasa ko sa Mims.com na mabuti sa katawan ang C-Lium Fibre. It promotes healthy digestive system, helps lower
cholesterol, blood sugar levels and reduce body wt. Masubukan nga. 🙂
Jenny So says
October 14, 2011 at 8:56 amI forgot to ask. Which is better, the capsule form or the powder form?
steffyj says

EUNICE FERNANDEZ says
June 7, 2012 at 9:30 pmIs it safe to take or drink C-LIUM Fiber during menstrual period?
Gusto ko kasi na continous taking but I’m afraid pag meron ako, baka masama.
Please advise
Mommy Pehpot says

len says

airose sufrir says

EUNICE FERNANDEZ says
June 17, 2012 at 11:30 pmHi poh,
Thank you for answering my previous inquiry.
How about po kung may ibang food na bawal to intake while taking-up C-lium. I mean like coffee, cola, etc…
Mommy Pehpot says
August 6, 2012 at 7:17 amwala naman po pero if you’re under medication, give at least 2 hours para ma absorb ng tyan nyo ung gamot na iniinom mo before ka mag C=lium.. gaya ko naka pills ako.. sa umaga iinom ako ng pills then after 3 hours tsaka ang ako mag te take ng Clium 🙂
mae says
June 26, 2012 at 12:07 pmonce a day lang po ba pag take ng C lium?
Mommy Pehpot says
June 27, 2012 at 1:28 pmdepende sa fiber need mo.. pero start it once a day and if you think you still need more fiber, go for 2x a day 🙂
Erika says
July 26, 2012 at 9:15 pmSaan ka bumili niyan? How much does it cost you c-lium and alife ba package?
Erika says

Mommy Pehpot says
July 27, 2012 at 7:21 amsa Mercury meron din 😉
angelica says
July 30, 2012 at 9:32 pmI have finished 1 bottle (to be mixed with water) and now about to complete one bottle of capsule.
Why am I taking it? My bad chole is slightly high. Total chole ratio though is ok. After a week of taking it, there was a slight improvement. I have not had the time to have my chole check again. Will update you once I have done it.
I tire easily in the past, now, I feel better. I can walk up the MRT Stairs – Magallanes, without gasping for air nor feel so tired after. If you take senna, this is way better as I was told.
I also take hot lemon water first thing in the morning, 30 mins. after, I take c-lium fibre. I eat healthier now too. I drink another cup of hot lemon water in the evening. I may not have a good abs, but my tummy is now smaller.
Hope this helps.
Mommy Pehpot says
July 30, 2012 at 11:48 pmI’ll take the lemon advice 🙂
I prefer taking the oats than the capsule..
mkcc says

jared's mum says
December 6, 2012 at 6:39 ammy sister bought a box of C-lium from her friend + we are now planning to give it a shot, must get rid of my unsightly mid-section in time for the new year! 😉

Lisa says
May 24, 2013 at 3:17 amSame here, sis. I am what they call obese. I have difficulty in breathing and long walks makes me feel tired. Most of my time is sitting and little movements for house chores. 🙁
Good luck, sis.
Mommy Pehpot says
June 5, 2013 at 3:53 pmtry mo na mommy ung clium 🙂 malaki matutulong sayo lalo kung sasamahan mo ng proper diet and exercise 🙂
Mary Grace Sewani says
June 28, 2013 at 11:27 pmhi po.. im taking c-lium fibre for 3 days 1 sachet every morning 30 mins before breakfast and still im not getting my bowel movement… i’ll drink a lot of water.. lagi nga akong busog dahil sa water pero hindi pa rin ako nakakapag poop for 3 days!
pano po pag twice a day ko sya inumin? tuwing kelan kaya ung pang 2nd sachet ko iinumin? thanks!
Mommy Pehpot says
June 30, 2013 at 11:19 amaww that’s sad.. make sure na lang na your drink at least 2 L of water a day.. kung mag ta twice a day ka ng inom, try mo sa hapon ung 2nd sachet mo..
Mary Grace Sewani says
June 30, 2013 at 12:40 pmsiguro din po kaka start ko lng din uminom ng c-lium fibre kaya ndi ko pa nararamdaman ung effect nya sa katawan ko.. thank you po sa reply!
Mommy Pehpot says
July 4, 2013 at 6:35 pm🙂 basta tubig lang ng tubig ha 🙂 if you’re trying to lose weight, samahan mo na din ng metafit 🙂
reese says
April 11, 2014 at 1:38 pmHi! C-lium does really work wonders for me. Before, I sometimes had difficulty pooping. Every other day po ako magbawas. But when I started taking C-lium, I can poop everyday. 🙂 Huwag lang talagang kalimutang uminom ng tubig palagi. I experienced taking C-lium one day and didn’t drink enough water, hindi talaga ako nakapag bawas the next day. I think the husk inside the body should always be immersed in water kasi pag kulang ng tubig, mag je-jelly siya sa loob; that’s why hindi siya effective pag kulang ng tubig.
revuer says
May 8, 2014 at 1:10 pmkapag after meals siya tinake ano po mangyayari? no effect po ba? nakakalimutan ko po kasi lagi tapos naaalala ko lang po pagkakain. salamat po hope you’ll reply 😀
Mommy Pehpot says
May 13, 2014 at 8:13 amhmm ang alam ko mas effective sya pag before meal eh 🙂 pwede naman sya sa tanghali or sa gabi 🙂
Robilyn bernadas says
May 14, 2014 at 10:38 amThnx for the info..im a bf mom too..and its difficult to loose weight as i always feel hungry…its so devastating and frustrating seeing myself chubby…i bought c.lium but afraid to take as i kept on thnking might affect bad …
Mommy Pehpot says
May 14, 2014 at 11:10 ammahirap talag mag lose weight when you’re breastfeeding.. the key is to eat 4x a day with a complete. What’s a complete meal? 1/2 of your plate should be veggies, 1/4 protein and 1/4 carbohydrates. Ako kase I don’t eat veggies, so ang ginagawa ko is veggies smoothie (4 leaves rommaine lettuce, 1 small carrot, one small banana, 1/4 cup milk and 1/2 glass water) then I eat 1/4 bread for carbohydrates 🙂 gawin mo yan every four hours then Clium every morning and metafit once or twice a day 🙂
Robilyn bernadas says
May 14, 2014 at 10:49 amYong metafit ba. ..ok lng sa breastfeed mom..?thnx
Mommy Pehpot says
May 14, 2014 at 11:08 amyup ok lang sya 🙂
jenie quiruela says
November 20, 2014 at 1:11 pmhello moms out there! I am 4weeks pregnant and I am having problems with my bowel movement. It is really so hard to poop even if I do not ate too much. I wonder if this C-lium fibre could help me? is this product suitable for conceiving moms? I have read that this is organic so I wonder if I could use it but I am just afraid that it might cause problems to the baby in my womb?
Mommy Pehpot says
December 3, 2014 at 1:35 amyes it is suitable for pregnant women.. just do not take this together with your vitamins. If you drink your vitamins in the morning, drink this at night time.. also make sure that you drink at least 8 glasses of water when you take clium.
