I am IBS-C, Lactose Intolerant, and new to this site and this diet, but am doing well for the first time in a while! In addition to a little over three scoops of Citrucel daily (before each meal--abt 2/3 clear mix, 1/3 orange for flavor) with a little Acacia mixed in, I've also been having 1 tbsp of ground flax after breakfast and after dinner. I just mix it in a little non-fat soy milk and try to chew it well. I figure that if it is at the end of the meal, the IF will be well supported by the SFS drink and SF I've already eaten. Also, it seems that the mix of IF and SF in the flax itself, as well as the fact that it's ground, make it more tolerable than, for eg, bran which used to help me tremendously with C bfr I had IBS, but can't go near anymore. The flax in soy is quite delicious as well--kind of nutty. And of course--lots of water. Good luck!!
