it often has IBS triggers added - artificial sweeteners, colors, flavors, citric acid, etc. Psyllium is actually about 2/3 soluble fiber and 1/3 insoluble. It seems to cause a lot of gas and bloating for most IBS folks. It would not be my first choice of a fiber supplement for IBS at all.

Best,
Heather
