IF alone is very constipating if you're IBS-C! I've experimented with cutting down on my SF in a misguided effort to "get things moving", and less SF = more constipation and cramping.

If you're getting IF in every meal, make sure you're getting SF in every meal as well. I take about 2.5 tablespoons of acacia a day. If you're getting both in every meal in quantities that seem reasonable, then it's probably time to look at fluids (drink lots), exercise (aim for daily - vigorous sweaty exercise helps more), and stress control (hypno, yoga, etc.).
