I get all of my soluble fiber from my diet and I don't take a soluble fiber supplement. I use to take one but it didn't seem to make much difference. The biggest improvement came when I reduced consumption of insoluble fiber foods.

The UK GI IBS guidelines suggests that fiber supplements are of marginal benefit and the US GI guidelines say there is weak evidence to show that psyllium is moderately effective.

It is possible to manage IBS symptoms through fiber in the diet.

Are you IBS-D, IBS-C or IBS-A? What SFSs have you tried? What problems are you experiencing with SFSs?
