Yeah, the acacia just didn't seem to work out for me. I just felt uncomfortable every single night. So I went back to my Fiber Choice, which is supposed to be bad but doesn't bother me as much as the acacia seemed to. I plan on giving it a second chance soon, I just wanted to give my body a rest first so it would be a fair test. Last time I started out at 4 g, since that's where I am in my Fiber Choice, but next time I might start out with less. Are you still having trouble with it?

OH, can I relate! My families new nick name for me is STINKY BUTT! Good thing they love me!
Can't offer to much advice for I haven't found too much to help me! Digestive enzymes baught at your local health food store help some. Lighting matches right after you fart help to take the stink out of the air, something about the sulfur?! It does work much better than airfreshner!

Yeah, lighting matches is a trick my husband taught me over 20 years ago. Definitely clears the air like nothing else. Of course then people might think you're sneakin' a smoke in the bathroom!!

Kree - when you start back slowly, you could probably stay on the Fiber Choice at the same time. Just cut back on the FC, and add in a little acacia. Maybe that will help you adjust?
