I've been reading through almost everything on this site, is a very good source of information. One thing I am quite confused about however is the amount of water one should take everyday. In one section ("IBS FAQ"), you mention that "For soluble fiber to normalize your bowel function you must drink enough water - aim for at least 128 ounces of water each day." that is twice the amount usually recommended... Does that include the water that I'm drinking with the fiber supplements?

As a side note, I live in Nova Scotia Canada, and have been unable to find anything besides Metamucil, which seems to be the black sheep of the fiber supplement family. Anyone in my area know where to get something different? I could order the tummy fiber online, but i worry about shipping, taxes, duty & remembering to re-order in time..
