Hi Rocketqueen--

I'm IBS-C, and I'm here to say that you won't get unconstipated until you get some insoluble fiber in your diet. This is not to say that acacia isn't useful, but by itself it is not enough to overcome C. Start adding some insolubles to your meals where you have plenty of soluble fiber, and I think you'll start seeing a difference.

Look up Heather's 7 Sneaky IBS Sins in the newsletter area, and you will see that not getting any insoluble fiber is one of them!

--AC (who forces herself to eat fruits and veggies with every meal to keep the C-monster at bay!)
