Cellulose: Down with OPP


You may be wondering what we mean by "down with OPP". Well, we can say it’s not the Naughty By Nature lyrics you may be thinking of from the 90s. What we mean by (OPP) is "Opportunistic Plant Parts" which is what cellulose is!

•    Supports regularity
•    No caloric value
•    Promotes feelings of satiety
