Re: soluble fiber       10/21/09 12:26 PM Edit Reply Quote kgj Reged: 01/02/09 Posts: 4 Loc: Orange County Indiana I didn't have any side effects from taking the fiber supplement. I was worried because I had terrible experiences with regular drugstore products such as Fibercon. I did start with a very small dose, ½ teaspoon once a day and gradually increased by ½ teaspoons. (I added ½ teaspoon, twice a day, then three times a day, then increased the morning dose to 1 teaspoon, etc.) With each dose level my symptoms would get better then, despite following the IBS diet, begin to act up. At that point I would increase the amount of fiber. Now I take ½ tablespoon three times a day which seems to be my maintenance dose. Anyway don't get discouraged if it takes a while for you to find the right amount of fiber supplement for you. The fiber supplement along with attention to diet really does help alleviate symptoms.
