Sand, this is confusing to me

I posted this question below and Heather gave this reply:

This is exactly right and I compare it to a soluble fiber food because so many people mistakenly think of a supplement as a drug. Soluble fiber is not a drug. Soluble fiber is naturally found in lots of foods. So taking a soluble fiber supplement is like eating a food.

And you're also right that lots of folks use Acacia as a buffer before meals. That's a great way to use it, and exactly how I take it."

So, it still doesn't make sense to me why if we can eat soluble fiber food why a little amount of acacia or benefiber could cause us to bloat and be gassy. SFS is supposedly just an SF food, so why the bad reactions in so many of us?
