Excellent product, I mix some with my Provision 6 Chocolate whey for my before bed meal....a little water and freeze for a superb "fudgesicle". Sometimes I add a little Cool Whip Free. I also add it to my whey shakes, it really smooths them out, also in my oatmeal. I plan on using it in our body building meal routines, great find!!

I LOVE this product. It is a wonderful way to make low-calorie bread products at home. I use it to replace some (or in some cases, all) of the flour in my recipes. On top of that it can be added effortlessly to things like smoothies and oatmeal, yogurt, etc.. as a way to boost the fiber.

Oat Fiber 500 is a Good "fiber." Oat Fiber 500 (made by LifeSource Foods) from Netrition is good, & it's much better than other brands of oat fiber I've tried from other websites. I stir one to two tablespoons of Oat Fiber 500 in a big glass of water & Stevia & a healthy brand of liquid vanilla flavor (alcohol-free) (SweetLeaf and Frontier are good brands of vanilla). Oat Fiber 500, and Stevia, and vanilla flavor can all be ordered here at Netrition all on one order. The oat fiber I tried from somewhere else was just Not drinkable when I put it in my mixture. This Oat Fiber 500 (from LifeSource Foods) is my very favorite oat fiber. This mixture is very bland; however, it is something that I can do, it is drinkable although bland, and it is a good "fiber." This mixture really does not interfere with my diet while being a good "nutritional fiber. I like the soothing feeling to my stomach sometimes. (This mixture also has eased a fussy, 'acidic' stomach for me.) I haven't cooked much with Oat Fiber 500 yet. When I tried to cook it in with my scrambled egg whites, it just would not get cooked enough. I like my scrambled eggs to be very cooked and Not still moist. (Corn bran or a low carb substitute for flour is better in the scrambled egg whites.) Oat Fiber 500 seems to stay good for a longer while than I've ever kept any around. I keep Oat Fiber 500 (from LifeSource Foods) in the kitchen, & I do keep ordering more.

I love this stuff! It is the cheapest & easiest way to add fiber to your diet. I add it to everything from my protein shakes to my protein muffins. It adds lots of fiber without the calories. Because it absorbs so much moisture it results in bigger muffins for the same calories. I don't think I could live without it now! A must have for anyone watching their weight or trying to incorporate more fiber into their diet!

I use PolyD Fiber daily: 2 Tbs mixed in my blender with a large glass of milk (I use a chocolate milk product I like). I add 1 TB of oat fiber, half a ripe banana and/or other fruit(s). In doing so, I make sure I get the fiber I need every day to stay "regular" and enjoy a delicious drink besides. I recommend you experiment a bit to determine the amount of fiber that's just right for you. The description of PolyD says it dissolves best in warm liquids and tends to gel in cold liquids. I find that sprinkling the fiber powders into the blending milk-&-fruit mixture is successful in taking care of any potential cold-liquid problem.

I used this to make CarbQuick Peanut Butter bars (check their website for the recipe) and was so pleased with the way they came out. Very similar to brownies, only peanut butter flavored! When I ran out of PolyD, I tried the recipe with psyllum husks, which is another water soluble fiber, and the texture was not palpable. PolyD will give your baked goods a moist, almost chewy texture, which I imagine would be nice for low-carb cookies as well. I'm buying four more bags to try other recipes. I highly recommend this product for low carb baked goods.

This product adds a nice "chewiness" to baked goods- I use it a lot in brownies. Also keeps low carb baked goods from being too dry or crumbly.

This is a great sweetener, and it has the bonus of adding fiber. I put it in my protein shakes for after workouts, and on my cereal in the morning.

Great addition to Carbquik or Carbalose based baked goods giving perfect texture to biscuits, bread doughs, etc. Low Carb Friends Message Board has many shared recipes using WPI 5000.

WPI 5000 is an amazing product. You can use it with almond flour to create amazing things. We make pizza all the time that is great! I buy it from Netrition often.

This puts me back in the arena of baking the best breads again...and low carb friendly, too. I couldn't be more pleased with the results. Easy to work with, tastes good, no bad smell...even looks good. Sounds good, too -when the beeper goes off letting me know that it's done baking. Butter my buns and call me a biscuit, look what's here...Bread again!

I used the Wheat Protein Isolate 8000 to bake some bread using it as a replacement for wheat flour. It came out fantastic!! Wow, bread with only 4 carbs per slice, and it looks like, tastes like real bread, not the dry fibrous stuff that you can buy for 7-8$ per loaf. I will be buying a lot of this!!!!

I used this to make a pizza crust, and after having done so, I must urge anyone wanting to buy it to use it only in conjunction with other low carb flour products. The reason being is that alone the texture is a little tough and spongey, and the taste a little strong and off-putting(it overpowered the ingredients atop the pizza). When I made George Stella muffins however, I used the wheat protein only as 1/4 of the entire flour composition (along with 1/4 oat fiber, 1/4 almond meal, and 1/4 flax meal) and the muffins turned out great. So overall the product does what it promises, but don't rely on it too heavily in your baking recipes.
