The ingredients in acacia and Benefibre are different. Acacia contains gum arabic and new Benefiber contains wheat dextrin or NUTRIOSE. The old version of Benefiber contained guar gum. Research shows that wheat dextrin is a prebiotic and it may produce less gas and bloating than many other SFS. I would give it a try if I could get it Canada.

* Wheat dextrin and acacia are both PREbiotics - they're not probiotics. -nt-
