I can not wait to get my acacia and begin - I will begin with 1/4 teaspoon 2 times a day for a couple of days then work my way up - please tell me that I will get results. I have never had results with benefiber, citrucel or any others.

...as everyone's IBs is different but Acacia helps me. But then, so did psyllium! Could've done without the gas that caused tho.

Acacia really helps me too! I take a total of 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons a day. I never really saw any results with the other over the counter SFS's. I am C and I have a bowl movement almost every day like clock work. It's usually first thing in the morning.

Acacia is a SFS. A SFS is a soluble fibre supplement (here's the post of abbreviations ).
Read through the diet guidelines . They'll help. This diet works.

I got painful gas pains from using Metamucil (psyllium) but NEVER from Acacia. I started slow but worked up to the full 15g in a few weeks and not once did I experience any gas or bloating after taking the Acacia.

Did you start with 1/2 teaspoon - I was going to start with 1/4 teaspoon because I do not need MORE gas! Do you feel anything yet as far as less pain???
Do you take it first thing in the morning and then at nite???
Thanks for your help! Since you just started it will be nice to know!
