Hi Judith - There have a been a lot of posts on this topic. What you've been given is another name for psyllium - sold as Metamucil in the US. Unfortunately, psyllium is one of the few soluble fiber supplements available in the UK, but it's the one most likely to cause gas and bloating.

Another UK person on the board had good info about a product called Celevac - here's the earlier post web page. I would really recommend that over anything with isphagula.

For info on dosages and taking soluble fiber, check here web page

Best,
Heather
