The market for supplements related to gut health, metabolism, and skin, hair, and nail health is booming. Supermarket shelves are bursting with options that claim to promote regularity, support your microbiome, and improve blood sugar control in pill, powder, or gummy form. Fiber, collagen, and probiotic supplements are particularly popular right now.
According to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2020-2025, approximately 95 percent of Americans don’t consume enough fiber. The recommendation is 22-34 grams per day for adults, and most people aren’t hitting that mark.
BelliWelli, a nutrition supplement company, is determined to help folks consume more fiber. Its latest dietary supplement, Daily Fiber Gummies, is designed to support digestive health, appetite control, and blood sugar levels. Each serving (four gummies) contains five grams of fiber, one billion CFU of probiotics, and 100 mg of bovine collagen. The ingredients list contains soluble tapioca fiber, allulose, cane sugar, water, medium-chain triglycerides (coconut), natural flavors, citric acid, sodium citrate, and fruit and vegetable juice.
Per the National Institutes of Health (NIH), fiber is important for overall digestive health and regularity; heart health by lowering cholesterol levels and improving blood pressure; blood sugar control and weight management by increasing satiety and supporting healthy gut bacteria; and reducing the risk of certain types of cancer.

Additionally, probiotics are essential for gut, immune, metabolic, and skin health, per Harvard Health. The probiotics in BelliWelli’s fiber gummies are Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856, which, according to the NIH, can “increase protein absorption” and “maximize the health benefits associated with protein supplementation.”
According to the Cleveland Clinic, collagen’s role in the body is vast. It can help support skin health by improving elasticity, firmness, and hydration, and by reducing fine lines and wrinkles. It’s also vital for joint health, including cartilage formation and lubrication, and can reduce joint pain and stiffness. Additionally, it improves bone strength and density, which can minimize the risk of osteoporosis and fractures, and provides structural support for muscles, enhancing muscle recovery following exercise.

BelliWelli’s new three-in-one fiber, probiotic and collagen supplement is sold exclusively at Walmart, and retails for $19.97 for a 64-count bottle. It comes in a juicy watermelon flavor, with the color from fruit and vegetable juice rather than artificial dyes. Having just launched on Oct. 25, we’re excited to try BelliWelli Daily Fiber Gummies now that they’re available.
BelliWelli also makes a daily fiber powder mix and drink packets that contain fiber and probiotics. Both options come in watermelon, tropical breeze, peach mango, strawberry lemonade, wild berry, cucumber lime mint, orange mandarin yuzu, cherry limeade, and unflavored. By offering variety packs on BelliWelli’s website, you can sample each flavor, find your favorite, and keep your drinks interesting with so many options. It offers a subscribe-and-save program that provides 20 percent off your order. Perhaps in the future, it will also sell the Daily Fiber Gummies on its website.
BelliWelli’s new supplement may be an easier way for folks to get a dose of fiber, probiotics, and collagen, especially for those who prefer gummies to mixing powders or taking a pill. As always, you should consult your health care provider before starting a new supplement.
