Re: About the fiber...       01/30/03 04:15 PM Edit Reply Quote Heather Reged: 12/09/02 Posts: 7799 Loc: Seattle, WA Hi Meg - I'm going to send you to a page with really detailed information about soluble and insoluble fiber, which should answer a lot of questions for you. The page is http://www.firstyearibs.com/day3learn.html You're actually already eating fiber from your potatoes - it's soluble fiber, and that's the key to stabilizing IBS. You shouldn't have toughen up your system at all to increase soluble fiber - it's very soothing and normalizes bowel function, so it will help and not hurt. This is true for soluble fiber foods and supplements both. Increase your soluble fiber slowly, and drink lots of water with it. You should see a huge improvement very soon.
