You have to get Acacia from Heather; you won't find it at your pharmacy. It's really just a matter of personal preference. I've tried Fibercon, Citrucel, Acacia, and Benefiber. (And of COURSE Equalactin!)

The easiest of all is Benefiber because it dissolves INSTANTLY, has no taste, doesn't get thick -- it's perfect. And now it's available in a chewable tablet form, so you don't even need water.

Cost-wise, I don't think you can do better than the Acacia. And Heather's working on a system whereby she will soon be able to ship out to everyone who uses it on a regular basis, so that you never run out of it.

By the way, your doc won't know about Acacia (mine didn't). My GI pushed Citrucel. It's a matter of trial-and-error, really. Try one and see how your tummy likes it. I think Mags likes Citrucel; I like Benefiber. Most here like Acacia.
