Re: Soluble fibre is your friend!!!!! READ!!!!       08/16/06 12:07 PM Edit Reply Quote Yoda (formerly Hans) Reged: 01/22/03 Posts: 3682 Loc: Canada NO!!!@! White bread and potatoes do NOT cause constipation. If you read the dietary guidelines on soluble fibre, you'll discover that it draws water into the stool to make it soft to pass. Know what virtually ALL fiber supplements are made of? Yup! Soluble fibre. Yes, if you ONLY ate soluble fibre and nothing else, yes, chances in the end you would be constipated. Not from the SF, but from the lack of insoluble. You need to keep taking in the SF FIRST. Then add in the insolubles slowly and carefully. SF is now your best friend. I get really angry when doctors or nutritionists say that potatoes or white bread or white rice have no fibre. That's not true at all - it's SOLUBLE fibre. And all they care about is insoluble - because they think that's the only kind that counts. Not so. Soluble has lots of benefits, too. Especially for us. I know it's confusing. Hang in there, and sorry for the rant. I just love my SF and get defensive (not at you, but at ignorant doctors, etc.) -------------------- Formerly HanSolo. IBS, OCD, Bipolar, PTSD times 3.
