Hi, and welcome to the board! It seems to be very difficult to find non-psyllium soluble fiber supplements in the UK, and I don't know why.

The Maxifiber you found may not be a great option. Pectin is soluble fiber (and a really good one), so that's just fine. But I did a quick internet search for hemicellulose and found that most forms are insoluble. Cellulose is also insoluble. Insoluble fibers can cause IBS attacks, so it doesn't look like Maxifiber is a good bet for you.

I really wish I had a UK brand to send you to, but the options seem to be really limited. This really frustrates me

Best,
Heather
