I'm IBS-A, too. Attacks are D, and fairly rare these days. Mostly aggravated by anxious moments.

I take 2 teaspoons of Acacia every day. Usually just shake it up in a bottle of water and drink it all day. This is my #1 preventative against attacks and my #1 promoter of regular BMs! I struggled with trying to get balanced for over 5 years now, and ever since I started Acacia, things have definitely gotten better.

Fibercon and/or Pamine (antispasmodic) before I eat something questionable.

Multi-vitamin (Kirkland brand). Right now I'm mainly taking it for the Folic Acid because we might be trying to get pregnant soon! And, just to keep the immune system up and running during cold/flu season. I also don't eat enough greens...

Haven't started any other supplements yet, but my physician who focuses on optimal health, has suggested some probiotics and such. I might try them. Interested to see what others have success with and how they impact their symptoms and overall digestive health.
