Metamucil Orange Smooth

Metamucil is a well-known fiber supplement brand that has been a household name for decades. Originally introduced in 1934, it was initially developed to utilize the natural benefits of psyllium husk to support digestive health. The product shown, 'Orange Smooth', is one of their most popular formulations, designed to mix easily into liquids and provide a palatable way to increase daily fiber intake.

Today, Metamucil is owned by Procter & Gamble (P&G), which acquired the brand in 1985 from G.D. Searle & Company. P&G has since expanded the product line significantly, incorporating various forms like powders, capsules, and gummies. Manufacturing primarily takes place in the United States, specifically at dedicated facilities in Arizona and other regional hubs, though packaging and distribution may occur globally through P&G's extensive supply chain network.

As a flagship brand under P&G's health care division, Metamucil benefits from the parent company's global reach and research capabilities. P&G, headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio, remains the ultimate owner, managing the brand through its Personal Health Care business unit. The brand continues to focus on its legacy of heart health and digestive regularity through natural plant-based ingredients.
