Taken from this website:
"The USDA recommended minimum fiber intake for adults is 25 to 35 grams daily, and soluble fiber should account for one third to one half of this total amount. Some scientists actually recommend up to 60 grams of fiber a day, so the USDA recommendations are not maximum dosage limitations. The typical American eats only a meager 10-15 grams of fiber daily. For comparison, the average fiber intake in China is 33 grams of fiber a day, and it ranges as high as 77 grams per day in some regions."

So, if you're getting a high dose of Acacia, then you can try reducing the amount of SF foods you eat. But, we are taking Acacia in order to supplement the amount of fiber we intake, since we aren't getting enough.
