Re: Strategy to stablilize       06/02/16 11:35 AM Edit Reply Quote Heather Reged: 12/09/02 Posts: 7799 Loc: Seattle, WA Hi Andrew - I think you're on the right track. Constipation often does require a high end of a soluble fiber supplement - up to 30 grams per day for some folks. There is no problem with this as long as you increase your dose gradually to avoid bloating and gas. Since it took 27 grams/day of Benefiber, and you're only at 17 grams/day of Tummy Fiber, I would continue to increase your dose. You can keep the soluble fiber food foundations - that can only help - and if possible carefully increase your IF intake. Do trust your gut on the balance here - if you think you need more or less, pay attention to that feeling. XXOO H -------------------- Heather is the Administrator of the IBS Message Boards.
