I know what you are going through. And -although Heather recommends all those "starchy" foods to soothe the bowel - it can also block the bowel from my experience - especially if too much is eaten. Now it is necessary to have those soothing foods in small quantities - but here is what I have tried: I have tried to limit wheat/flour based foods and that has REALLY helped. Also, I only have one serving of oats a day - because they can cause gas, bloating. I try to make sure and have veggies as often as possible (cooked). I eat lean protein and I drink lots and lots of water. I do take acacia every day - two tsp. twice a day. I am thinking of increasing it a bit. And, when I overeat or have fatty foods at nite - I am especially "C" the next day!
