Acacia made me wicked C, so I can understand what you're talking about.

So, without a SFS, I would suggest flaxseed oil, blended into smoothies (with lots of berries and soy/rice/oatmilk). You're going to have to play around with the amount, but flaxseed oil has natural laxatative effects. The pureed berries should be ok for you, too, and will help get you some IF. Also, I take "Omega 3:6:9" pills that contain a bunch of different oils and that helps a lot - gets things moving.

As far as SFS go, have you tried working your way up to the maximum dosage? I'd give that a shot if you haven't.

I like the noni juice I'm taking right now - it, too, seems to have a bit of a laxatative effect.

And lastly, I'd recommend taking magnesium supplements - but check with your doctor first. Magnesium (along with the above) is the only non-prescription thing that'll keep me going.

Good luck dear, and remember - we're in the same boat (mostly), so lean on us! Hugs!
