Multiple fibers.: I can not envision any harmful effects rom the amount of fiber. It would be nice to have some other food groupd as well to round out the breakfast mea; such as fruits.

Fiber: The most important thing to remember when you are eating fiber is to be sure that you hydrate adequately. I don't see a problem with adding some flax seed to Frosted Mini Wheats.
