Use of acacia fiber

Hi Heather,

I have IBS-C and started taking your prebiotic acacia fiber in Jan and hit my "movable" ceiling about 3 weeks ago at 2.5 T. It has done wonders for me as far as bloating etc too.

However, I have found that my bowels are starting to not move again. I have had some stress over these past 3 weeks that I didn't have before which also prompted me to cheat a bit on the LOWFOD map items. All of which hasn't helped I am sure. I had to do a laxative finally, it cleared out, and then the next day I had extreme diarrhea.

Not sure what to do now as the constipation has returned. I did try increasing my fiber by .5 t and then 1 t. to no avail but only for a day or two. I am stumped and not sure what to do.

Do you have advice?

Thanks in advance
Lori
