Re: Fiber: Too Much, Too Little?       12/24/07 02:48 PM Edit Reply Quote Erilyn Reged: 11/14/07 Posts: 743 Loc: Beautiful British Columbia, Canada Solunle fiber isn't supposed to cause or worsen either C or D. It CAN however worsen bloating and gas, especially if you take too much or more than your body is used to. I have been increasing my dose by 1/2 tsp (1 gram of fiber) per week, and by the time I reached 9 grams a day, I felt like I was ready to rise up and float away because my gas was so bad. I cut back to 8 grams and that seems to be the magic number for me. C and D aren't 100% stable, but I feel like I'm perhaps 90% there. -------------------- IBS-A since age 12, and fructose sensitive; with the exception of my pregnancy, have been following Heather's diet since Nov. 19, 2007. Taking 12g of Acacia per day. Relatively stable since March 2008! Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
