I think that the websites that recommend psyllium for IBS actually know nothing about IBS and think that IBS = constipation and psyllim would take care of all the problems. It's true that psyllim might be very benefitial to a person with healthy gut. However, most of the people with IBS find it too harsh, irritating and gas producing. My own experience is that psyllium made me very bloated, very gasy and in some cases (stress, etc.) made my constipation even worse. You can still try it if you want. I would suggest trying only a little bit at first and see the results. Good luck!
