Quote: Metamucil (psylium) scares me as does fiber choice with inulin because Heather says people who bloat easily should stay away from these. That's why I specificaly chose Citrucel. It says it doesn't cause excess bloating or gas. HA! They didn't ask me!
Yeah but you know what, I take Metamucil and that's what works the best for me. I think Metamucil can be bad for IBS-D people, but there are some C people here who take it and it seems to be ok. I also didn't want to try it for the longest time for the same reasons, but the other brands didn't agree with me or did nothing, so I said hey may as well try it. I think you should get Metamucil, get a small container and try taking a little at a time and build up slowely. I take like half a dose in the morning, a dose at dinner time, and another before I go to bed. It helps the C a bit, not enough in my opinion, but it helps a LOT in terms of tolerating food, I can eat so much more now
