Re: I'm taking align how do I switch to florastore?

I do the cooking in our house. I use relatively few recipes. I like to invent my own
Equalactin, Fiber Lax, FiberCon, Fiberlax, Fibernorm, Konsyl Fiber and Perdiem Fiber contain the same ingredient - polycarbophil. It is a synthetic soluble fiber that isn't degraded by bacteria and therefore no gas should be produced because it isn't easily fermented by colonic bacteria. Polycarbophil has been shown to give relief of global IBS symptoms and ease of stool passage. It does not seem to significantly improve abdominal pain or bloating.
