Smoovees vs gummies and powders
One fibre drink for the whole family.
Kids’ fibre gummies are made for kids. Fibre powders are made for adults. Smoovees is made for everyone ages 4 and up, with real fruit and 4 g of fibre in every glass.
Why families choose Smoovees
Four reasons it works for everyone.
-
01
One bag for everyone
The same sachet for every member of the family from age 4. One product in the cupboard, not two.
-
02
Real fruit, not flavouring
Freeze-dried fruit, psyllium, sugar and natural flavour. No artificial sweeteners or colours.
-
03
4 g of fibre in one glass
3.5 g of it psyllium, with ¾ cup of water built in. No handful of gummies through the day.
-
04
A drink, not a dose
A fruity drink you share at the table, ready in 8 minutes. Not a supplement on a schedule.

Based on the labels of kids’ fibre gummies and a single-serve psyllium powder sold in Canada, checked in October 2026. Products differ, so check each label. Smoovees is a food, not a medicine. Drink plenty of fluids when adding fibre to your day.
What’s inside
Made with real fruit.
Every glass gets its taste from real freeze-dried strawberries, blueberries, mango and raspberries, not flavourings. Add 4 g of fibre from psyllium, single-serve sachets and third-party testing, all from a mom-founded company in Canada. That’s a fibre drink the whole family looks forward to.
Can adults drink Smoovees?
Yes. Smoovees is designed with kids in mind and made for everyone ages 4 and up, and plenty of parents drink it too. Every sachet has the same 4 g of fibre.
Is the fibre in gummies the same as the fibre in Smoovees?
Usually not. The kids’ fibre gummies we checked in Canada use inulin, FOS or a similar prebiotic fibre. Smoovees gets 3.5 g of its 4 g from psyllium, a soluble fibre that absorbs water and forms a gel. Both count toward the fibre a child gets in a day.
How much fibre does my family need?
Health Canada recommends about 25 g of fibre a day for kids ages 4 to 8, 26 to 38 g for older kids and teens, and 25 g for women and 38 g for men. One sachet of Smoovees provides 4 g.
