I am not sure that high viscosity gel producing fibers will be any more or less beneficial than other SF for IBS-C. I have not seen any evidence to suggest this might be the case. This likely because the water bound up by the SF occurs mostly when it is dissolved before imgestion and in the stomach. It likely draws little water from the intestine per se.
