Hi Ashley

I'm IBS-D (sometimes A but predominantly D) and I've had really good success with Acacia. I take 3 very generous tablespoons throughout the day (one as soon as I get up, one right before bed, and the other mixed into water bottles throughout the day.) As long as I'm making sure to get enough water, staying active and keeping stress under wraps, then with just the Acacia (and the diet, obviously) I can stay pretty stable.

The only other fiber I tried was the metamucil capsules. I didn't try them for very long but I had some pretty harsh effects (gas mostly) from them and I really prefer a powder to having to take millions of pills (plus the choking hazard freaked me right out! lol).

Hope that helps!
