Re: How much insoluble fiber is safe?       11/08/04 04:46 PM Edit Reply Quote Little Minnie Reged: 04/16/04 Posts: 4987 Loc: Minnesota I find that I can only eat about half as much insoluble veggies as I want to. I grow my own veg and have a problem stopping at a few. But the thing is some are easier to digest than others. Broccoli is a tough one so I limit that to 4 mouthfuls or so and eat it with cooked carrots and rice or whatever. Peas are easier but snow peas and snap peas I have to limit more than I want. The gassy ones like broc, caul, asparagus are the problems for me and I make myself eat less than I want and at the end of the meal. Although all the cooked ones sit far better than raw lettuce and tomato on a sandwich or something along that line. I guess you have to start with a few mouthfuls and see if YOU can eat more as time goes on. I hope this helps (since I have wondered that just like you). -------------------- IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages: "You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
