I agree wholeheartedly about the importance of soluble fiber. SF is so soothing to your gut, and will not produce the kind of gas you are suffering from. However, if you struggle at all with constipation, it is really helpful to eat IF foods with things like potatoes and white rice...in my experience, those kinds of starchy things don't provide enough fiber on their own to keep me regular. It also depends on your individual tolerances, though...I need lots of safe(r) IF like cooked lentils and beans, brown rice, and cooked veggies, but I know some D people who can only tolerate a very small amount of IF in their diet. Of course, the most important thing is to eat both kinds of fiber at the same meal or snack, in the right combination for you. Your best bet is to experiment, and find out what works for you! Good luck!
