| us-label | ingredients | unknown | The side panel with the Allergy Alert and the phenylketonurics (phenylalanine) statement is cut off in every available photo; not transcribed | ^pack |

| | packaging | not_researched | The 2008 Barcodepedia title ("for Regularity, Smooth Texture", 23 oz) predates the 4-in-1 Fiber design; that label generation, its panel and exact net weight were not researched | ^bp2008 |

## About <!--about-->
Metamucil 4-in-1 Fiber Sugar-Free Orange is a 660 g (23.3 oz) canister of orange-flavoured psyllium husk powder sold in the United States as a fiber supplement, with about 114 one-teaspoon servings.[^pack] It is distributed by Procter & Gamble of Cincinnati, Ohio,[^pack] which bought the Metamucil brand from G. D. Searle & Company in 1985; Searle had introduced it in 1934.[^wiki] Psyllium husk leads the ingredient list, sweetened with aspartame and coloured with Yellow 6, and the Supplement Facts panel gives 30 calories and 6 g of dietary fiber, 5 g of it soluble, per two rounded teaspoons.[^pack] The front claims support for appetite control, cholesterol, blood sugar and digestive health, statements the label says the FDA has not evaluated.[^pack] Amazon.com lists the canister under this UPC.[^amazon]
The first Barcodepedia, in a page archived in December 2008, called this barcode "Metamucil Sugar Free Psyllium Fiber for Regularity, Smooth Texture, Orange - 23 oz", a title taken from Amazon.com.[^bp2008] Contributor photos on Open Food Facts from 2020 to 2025 all show the 4-in-1 Fiber design.[^off]
