Unfortunately, there are no safe coffees out there. The reduced acid coffees and decaffeinated ones still cause problems for us IBSers. Here's an interesting scientific paper on the effects of coffee on people with IBS that's at the Teeccino website: Teeccino -- coffee and the colon. So if you're constipated and you drink coffee in order to go, you're just messing your system up more, aggravating those colonic spasms common to IBSers, and it will be harder to get stable.

Anyway, I think Teeccino is wonderful! I drink it and so does my father (who used to be a hardcore coffee drinker). I like the Vanilla Nut flavored Teeccino. It does contain inulin but not enough to cause any GI problems. At least not for me. It's also a good source of potassium, and I think it's common for people with chronic diarrhea to be low on potassium so you get a little boost with Teeccino.
