Some soluble fiber supplements are fermented by colonic bacteria in some people differently than other people. For example while many IBSers cannot handle soluble fiber supplements containing FOS because it ferments too rapidly producing lots of gas others can. Similarly, while most IBSers can handle psyllium because it contains 1/3 insoluble fiber others cannot tolerate it. It has a lot to do with the composition of the colonic flora which differs from person to person.

You may have to try a few different soluble fiber supplements until you find one that works for you.
