I've been on the boards a while now, and have followed the diet in principle more than an exact science. Us C types can have a lot more IF than the D's can tolerate. Actually, without the IF, we're in a "bind" so to speak! So, at my worst, I stuck with safe soluable fiber like baked sweet potatoes, white bread, white meat and IF's I could tolerate (lettuce, tomatoes, strawberries...in moderation only).
I added the Acacia and SLOWLY increased my dose over a 6 month period..I'm using 18grams a day in three doses - one before each meal. I added a CAL/MAG supplement next, then later a probiotic, then even later an Omega complex. The water intake HAD to be increased as well as physical activity.
I have read and re-read this site, asked a lot of questions on the board and done a lot of research on my own. IBS is as unique as the person who has it, so be ready to tailor-make your diet to YOU using the wonderful principles found here and plenty of caution, common sense and flexibility. Feel better soon! There are more C's here, and they will answer in time.
