Natural Soluble Fiber
It may be easier to use fiber tablets, but they don't have as much fiber and are more expensive. The only drawbacks are mixing this into liquids (it's like making flour thickener for gravy, liquid into the powder or you get lumps) and having to measure it out. I suggested they include a measuring scoop with the canister. I just keep a small plastic measuring spoon inside.

Life Changing Fiber
Finding Heather's website was one of the best things that's ever happened to me. My IBS was getting to a point where I was nearly homebound. Everything I ate made me sick. I started taking an over the counter fiber, which helped a little, but the big warning on the label telling me I would probably choke to death kept me from taking the amount I needed and made me even more of a nervous wreck. I started taking Heather's acacia fiber when I saw that it didn't have choking properties. I got results almost immediately. Over time, I've been able to live much more normally (like most IBS sufferers, I haven't found a permanent solution yet). I can go out to eat more than five feet from my house, and I can take car trips (and even one plane trip) without suffering any problems. Although this isn't a magic powder that will solve IBS, it's the closest thing I've found.

same effect as regular fiber

after 3 days of only 1/2 teaspoon twice daily I was so miserable with trapped gas and bloating it had to be stopped . Your peppermint oil was a miraculous cure after 2 weeks but had to be given up after 3 weeks since it was eating up my esophagus and stomach. It is very depressing after experiencing feeling normal for a week but I guess I'm done with Heather's.

Hi, Elizabeth!
I am so sorry that you are experiencing problems with the Acacia Tummy Fiber and the Peppermint Capsules. I am sure that if you stick with it, and continue using the Fiber, you will see results. It can take a while to build up to a resolving dose.

I've included some helpful information below on how the Tummy Fiber and Peppermint Capsules work, as well as methods for reducing your bloating and gas.

If you decide you do not want to use the Acacia Tummy Fiber/Peppermint Oil Capsules, you can return them opened or unopened for a refund.

Some people need to take a very small dose to start because their bodies are sensitive to fiber. Try taking just 1/4 measuring teaspoon twice a day. It may be that you just need to start at a very low dose.

Taking too much acacia too fast can cause increased gas and bloating. Acacia is one of the lowest gas-forming fibers out there and going slow makes the gas issue totally avoidable. Please be patient because this really does work.

We recommend starting with ½ teaspoon twice a day (daily dose of 1 teaspoon). You can split the daily dose up as many time as you like throughout the day, just divide it by 2 or 3 depending on the frequency you prefer. Try to increase the dose every 4th day or so by a teaspoon (add this to the daily dose). If you get increased gas and bloating by jumping the dose up by a teaspoon, try cutting this in half. Some people with IBS are so sensitive they have to go up at ¼ teaspoons every 4th day. Keep stepping up the dose every 4th day or so until you find a dose that resolves your constipation and/or diarrhea. Constipation is usually resolved with a daily dose of 4-5 tablespoons/day and diarrhea/loose stools usually resolves at a lower dose of 1-3 tablespoons/day. You shouldn’t take more than 5 tbsp/day. The maintenance dose is different for each person depending on their specific symptoms. Dietary changes are often necessary to make lasting changes. In the beginning until you stabilize, it works best to take the acacia before each meal to minimize the effect of trigger foods in the meal and to calm the intestines before the food arrives.

Peppermint is contraindicated for people with GERD/Reflux/chronic heartburn. Many people with IBS often have these conditions, so we worked around it by enteric coating the peppermint oil capsules. This helps them to pass through the stomach without dissolving by making them resistant to the stomach acid. In fact, we doubled the enteric coating on our peppermint caps because we found it helped people with these conditions to be able to use them to manage their IBS without aggravating their upper GI issues.

However, some people with severe GERD/Reflux/chronic heartburn still have problems with the peppermint capsules because they will dissolve in the stomach before reaching the intestines. The antispasmodic effect you want to happen in your intestines will then occur in the stomach and this relaxes the sphincters at the top of the stomach. If this happens, it can lead to heartburn.

There are a few things we have found that help to prevent this from happening:

1) Take the peppermint capsules on an empty stomach an hour before the meal to allow them time to reach the intestines and dissolve before the food arrives. Taking them too close to meal time can be problematic for people with reflux.

2) The peppermint caps should not be taken during or after a meal because the food will block them from reaching the intestines and this could cause them to dissolve in the stomach.

3) Drinking only enough liquid to swallow the capsules seems to help them pass through without dissolving in the stomach. The enteric coating makes them resistant to stomach acid, but they are still water soluble. Limiting the amount of liquid they’ll be floating around in will help them reach their destination.

4) You shouldn’t take them at the same time as any medication (prescription or over-the-counter) designed to lower the stomach acid. Lowering the stomach acid makes the enteric coating less likely to work (remember it is resistant to high acid). For folks who need to take these medications, what we came up with is taking the peppermint caps about an hour before you take the acid lowering/blocking medication. This will give them a better chance of making it down to the intestines where they will dissolve and start to take effect without affecting the upper GI.

Thank you for your review, and I hope that you'll see success with the Tummy Fiber and Peppermint Capsules!

Hi, Marianna!

I am sorry you are not seeing results as quickly as you would like. For the Tummy Fiber Acacia to work properly, it's crucial that you start with a low dose (1/2 teaspoon twice daily) and gradually increase to a dose high enough to resolve constipation (which may be 4-5 tablespoons a day). If you get gas or bloating, that would mean you increased your dose too quickly. It can take several weeks to gradually increase up to the dose you'd likely need to resolve constipation, and unfortunately you can't rush this. Tummy Fiber is not a drug or a laxative so it won't work overnight.

I really feel for the constipation folks, as it takes some patience to start slowly, increase gradually, and eventually get your daily dose up high enough to resolve symptoms. A lower dose can't worsen constipation, but it won't resolve it, either. You may want to start over following these directions and see if you have better luck.

Having the fiber at least twice a day - and you can have it more often - is also key, as you want to keep your gut filled with soluble fiber at all times. That will help prevent cramping and spasms in the first place.

It's also help to review the Five Constipation Frustrations here http://www.helpforibs.com/news/newsletter/060705.html#askheather and, if you've been using laxatives, information on transitioning off them here http://www.helpforibs.com/news/newsletter/06/082206.html#askheather

There have been many improvements in the products in the stores that folks with IBS can use. I make many substitutions,especially since I am lactose intolerant. Everyones tolerance is different, for instance I can tolerate meat in small quantities occasionally. I find that I need fruits in my diet to avoid becoming constipated.

Hi Loretta - the book has been updated repeatedly since first publication, but you are right, the products in grocery stores change so quickly that there is almost no way to keep that kind of information current in the book.

I do try and keep a current list of safe brand name food recommendations on the website here http://www.helpforibs.com/messageboards/ubbthreads/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Board=diet&Number=120336&page=0&view=expanded&sb=5&o=&fpart=1
and also a list of snacks with brand names here http://www.helpforibs.com/messageboards/ubbthreads/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Board=diet&Number=65272&page=0&view=expanded&sb=5&o=&fpart=1

If you have suggestions to add to those lists you are welcome to email me and I'll put them on. It's fast and easy to keep things up to date on the website. It's not nearly as practical to try and do it with books, especially when publishers really don't like to update and revise press runs more than every few years at best. And even though I'm the author, I am at the mercy of the publisher!

Hope this helps a bit,
Heather

Hi Laura - I'm so sorry you find the peppermint tea too strong. It is deliberately very potent, as it has the highest possible volatile oil content so that it is medicinal strength peppermint. That's what makes it effective for helping IBS symptoms like painful spasms and cramps. The stronger the tea, the more effective it will be.

You could try brewing the tea for a much shorter time, or in a larger cup of water, both of which will decrease the strength. Since you have already discarded the tea I can't ask you to return it for a refund, so we will simply credit your card for the tea as if you had been able to return it.

Hi there,

I am so sorry that the Acacia Tummy Fiber isn’t working well for your constipation issues. I’ve included below some instructions on how to take it to make it work more efficiently. I am sure you’ll see success if you follow our steps on how to find the right dose for you. Acacia Tummy Fiber does not cause Constipation or Diarrhea, but it does take time to find the right dose.

We recommend starting with ½ teaspoon twice a day (daily dose of 1 teaspoon). You can split the daily dose up as many time as you like throughout the day, just divide it by 2 or 3 depending on the frequency you prefer. Try to increase the dose every 4th day or so by a teaspoon (add this to the daily dose). If you get increased gas and bloating by jumping the dose up by a teaspoon, try cutting this in half. Some people with IBS are so sensitive they have to go up at ¼ teaspoons every 4th day. Keep stepping up the dose every 4th day or so until you find a dose that resolves your constipation and/or diarrhea. Constipation is usually resolved with a daily dose of 4-5 tablespoons/day and diarrhea/loose stools usually resolves at a lower dose of 1-3 tablespoons/day. You shouldn’t take more than 5 tbsp/day. The maintenance dose is different for each person depending on their specific symptoms. Dietary changes are often necessary to make lasting changes. In the beginning until you stabilize, it works best to take the acacia before each meal to minimize the effect of trigger foods in the meal and to calm the intestines before the food arrives.

Acacia helps people with diarrhea to have formed bowel movements and people with constipation to have softer and easier to pass bowel movements. People often experience significant improvement within a couple weeks when they make the dietary and fiber changes at the same time; although, constipation does take longer to resolve than diarrhea. It is not uncommon for constipation folks to increase the acacia very slowly because they are more likely to have trouble with painful gas and bloating. It can take 1-2 months to work up to the daily dose of 4-5 tablespoons/day sometimes. It will only make you miserable if you increase the dose too quickly. Important changes are taking place inside the colon as the body adjusts, so just be patient and let your body gently adjust to the acacia. Constipation folks will often need to continue to use whatever methods they were using previously to keep things moving until they are able to work up to the 4 tablespoons/day dose or so. Please don’t stop everything cold turkey and make yourself sick because this will take some time. The overwhelming feedback I hear from people is that once they reach this dose it is a magical experience and they are able to stop relying on the other medications etc they have always needed to have a normal movement at least once a day.

If you do decide that the Acacia fiber is just not working for you, you can return it for a refund to the address below. Please include your name and if you have it, your order number in the package.

I have been suffering with IBS for years and it has only gotten worse with my increase in stress in my life which is not going away. What I didn't realize was that I could control the pain and constipation by controlling my diet which is very difficult but I am managing and with the use of the Heather's fiber product. I have been increasing it weekly and am feeling much better. I also haven't had any adverse reactions from the product itself but I have been following the instructions very closely.

Not working well for me

I was very excited to try the Tummy Fiber and very hopeful that it would help me. However, it has not worked for me. First let me tell you that I have been diagnosed with IBS and have also been diagnosed with Gastroparesis. I do not have diarrhea, if anything, I have constipation (or lack of movement since my stomach only empties every 5 hours). I have a very healthy diet and eat very little at a time. When I read on your website that the Tummy Fiber would help with diarrhea OR constipation I was thrilled. I started with 1 teaspoon twice a day. It slowed things down even more, bulked up my stool, actually making my situation worse. And yes, I am trying to follow your soluble, insoluble, stay away from trigger foods plan. I do everything I know to do and nothing helps. I feel so helpless. Nothing works, nothing helps, nothing makes it better. :(

Hi, Melanie!

I'm so sorry to hear you're still struggling with constipation. For how long have you been taking the Tummy Fiber? Are you currently taking 2 teaspoons a day? Typically, a resolving dose for individuals suffering from constipation will fall between 3 and 5 tablespoons. As the Tummy Fiber will not cause constipation or diarrhea, it may be the case that you need to reach a higher dose before experiencing symptom relief. I would recommend continuing with the Tummy Fiber and gradually increasing your dose by 1/2 to 1 teaspoon every 4 to 5 days. I think, as your daily dose increases, you will begin to see positive results. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help you further or if you have any additional questions.

Best regards,

I ordered this product because I was experiencing constipation due to newly prescribed medication. I did not want to start the merry go round of stool softeners and laxatives. So I searched for a natural answer. I ran across this product and it does work wonderfully. I had some concern that it may cause gas. I am a natural gas bag already so I started off with a small dose and worked my way up. I never had any trouble with gas. I can now take my medicine everyday and not worry about how it effects my bowels. My plumbing is in tip top shape. Thanks Tammy!!

I feel normal again
I started with 1/2 teaspoon twice a day dose (once in the morning and then after dinner) and within the first week I was starting to become regular and noticing a lot less gas. I tried to up the dose gradually but I think it may have been too much because I had diarrhea, unless that was something unrelated. I stayed at the 1/2 teaspoon dose and it keeps me regular but would like to increase it to help a little more with the constipation. I missed a dose or two during the past week and I had horrible trapped gas pains...needless to say I will not miss a dose again! I have had gastric bypass surgery and this stuff really helps me with controlling gas, because its a big problem afterwards. My "bad" IBS days went from 2-3 a week to not even once a week, more like 1 bad day out of 3 weeks. This product is awesome!

Heather says:

Feedback Rating

Hi Carol - I am so sorry to hear this. There should be no way that the Tummy Fiber can cause diarrhea. Soluble fiber can only help both diarrhea and constipation.

Did you start at a dose of ½ teaspoon twice daily and gradually increase? Most folks need to work up to about 2 or 3 tablespoons per day for the best results. But, some people do stabilize at a lower dose, and chronic constipation tends to take 4-5 tablespoons per day.

What you don't want is to just stay at ½ teaspoon twice a day, as that isn't enough to do anything for you. It's just a beginning dose to get your gut used to an increase in fiber. You also want to increase gradually, not suddenly or drastically increase your dose and overwhelm your gut.

Please let me know if you have any questions and would like more help with your dosage. You are also welcome to simply return the Tummy Fiber if you can't use it.

Dear Jean,

We are so sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with both shipping and costumer service!

I looked up your order and noticed it was shipped the day after you placed it and was delivered two business days later. Would you mind clarifying the shipping issue so we can avoid making the same mistake in the future?

In addition, please let us know how we could improve our customer service as we pride ourselves on taking excellent care of our customers.

Related to your comment about having both IBS and diabetes: Diets ritch in soluble fiber have terrific advantages for people with diabetes. Soluble fiber slows the rate of carbohydrate absorption (this gives an advantage to taking Acacia right before a meal), improves regulation of blood sugar, and lowers insulin requirements. Soluble fiber also decreases LDL ("bad") blood cholesterol levels, and therefore reduces the risk of heart disease, which is a serious risk for diabetics.

Please let me know if you have additional questions. We look forward to hearing how we can improve your shopping experience with Heather's Tummy Care.

Great product would be nice if fennel and peppermint tea has same number of bags in can.

Speed of Delivery

Customer Service

Heather says:

Hi Vivian - thank you for your comments! The fennel and peppermint differ in the number of teabags per can because peppermint takes up so much more space than fennel. The fennel is much denser and heavier. This means we can get a lot more fennel teabags in the same size can as we can get peppermint tea bags.

Peppermint is very light and fluffy, and there is just no way to get 45 high dose teabags into a canister. The most we can get into a peppermint tea can is 36 teabags - and that is a tight fit.

In order to fit 45 peppermint tea bags into a can, we'd have to make the can about 1/3 larger, and then it wouldn't be even close to the same size can as the fennel. For manufacturing, packaging and shipping purposes, we have to use the same size can for both products.

You can order both teas in bulk as loose tea, in one pound refill pouches. Even though they are the same weight, the peppermint pouch is about three times bigger than the fennel pouch. But, that would get you the same amount of each product by weight.

Hope this helps clear things up!

Best,
Heather

Reasons for low rating of cookbook

Heather, I live in a small town in South Carolina, and so many of the products required are not available here whatsoever. I am on disability and cannot afford to order all the special products either. I also cannot easily get to Columbia, 45 miles away, to try and find them without a great deal of difficulty. I apologize for having to just tell you the truth, but for those of us who are disabled and living in more rural areas, the cookbook just is not that helpful, plus some of the recipes just have far far too many ingredients, including those which are unobtainable. But thank you for trying to write a cookbook for people nonetheless.

Can you let me know the specific ingredients you're struggling to find? Just about everything that used to be only at health food markets has now made its way into mainstream grocery stores, even in rural areas. Let me know and I might have some suggestions.

There is a very wide range of recipes in the book - some are fancy enough for holiday dinner parties but many are fast and easy for quick meals. If there are ingredients you don't like you can probably simply omit them.

Customer Service

Heather says:

Hi Joann - I'm so sorry you find the tea too strong. It is deliberately strong, as it has the highest possible volatile oil content so that it is medicinal strength peppermint. That's what makes it effective for helping IBS symptoms like painful spasms and cramps. The stronger the tea, the more effective it will be.

You can try brewing the tea for a much shorter time, which will decrease the strength. If you are still unhappy you are certainly welcome to return it for a full refund.

Best,

Easy to read and great recipes
I purchased your book about a week ago and I can already feel the difference. I have made many of your recipes all of them have been delicious. I have been suffering apparently a long time, I just never had a name for what I have. My symptoms got worse after I became a lacto/ovo vegetarian. I did what most vegetarians do, I increased my fiber with whole grain cereal & breads, fresh fruits and veggies etc. Every morning after breakfast and many suppliments, I would run to the bathroom to vomit. No one had an answer. I went for an upper GI, with negative results, next being told I may be lactose intolerant I finally got a name from my Doctor....IBS. But no real information about how to live with followed, until I found your site. I can't thank you enough. I know people must write you everyday, praising you for all your work and efforts. Your book is easy to read, the recipes are delicious and it is chock full of the necessary information needed to live with this condition and live well.

Hi Patricia - I'm so sorry you're unhappy with the book. You are welcome to return it at any time. I tried to give the widest range of recipes possible in Eating for IBS, so people had both all-American recipes and more creative, ethnic options as well. My goal was to cover the whole spectrum of tastes so there was something for everyone. If you don't care for seafood, feel free to substitute any kind of skinless white poultry meat you like, or if you prefer to use a vegetarian meat substitute that is fine too. If you lean towards fast and easy, traditional, all-American recipes you might prefer the recipes in the Heather Cooks! DVD with recipe cards.

Tummy fiber

Accacia is a high allergin so I am reluctant to take it without assurance that it won't cause me trouble.

Speed of Delivery

Customer Service

Heather says:

Hi Chris,

Are you talking about an allergy to acacia trees? There shouldn't be a connection between an allergy to acacia pollen or leaves and the acacia fiber. We do have folks allergic to acacia trees who do fine with the acacia fiber. The fiber is actually only produced by two specific species of acacia trees, which only grow in Africa. The fiber comes from a gum that these trees produce (sort of like maple syrup) when the temperature hits a certain height.

Acacia fiber is also known as gum arabic. A gum allergy is quite rare. If you are allergic to gum arabic, or to gums in general (guar gum, locust bean gum, etc.) then you'd want to avoid acacia fiber.

Hope this helps,
Heather

Speed of Delivery

Customer Service

Heather says:

Feedback Rating

Hello Andrea,

I am so sorry you experienced constipation. The Tummy Fiber will not actually cause constipation, but will help to resolve bowel motility issues. I would recommend trying the Tummy Fiber Acacia Senegal one more time.

Please make sure you start with a low dose and gradually increase to a higher resolving does. Taking too much acacia too fast can cause increased gas and bloating. Acacia is one of the lowest gas-forming fibers out there and going slow makes the gas issue totally avoidable. Please be patient because this really does work.

We recommend starting with ½ teaspoon twice a day (daily dose of 1 teaspoon). You can split the daily dose up as many time as you like throughout the day, just divide it by 2 or 3 depending on the frequency you prefer. Try to increase the dose every 4th day or so by a teaspoon (add this to the daily dose). If you get increased gas and bloating by jumping the dose up by a teaspoon, try cutting this in half. Some people with IBS are so sensitive they have to go up at ¼ teaspoons every 4th day. Keep stepping up the dose every 4th day or so until you find a dose that resolves your constipation and/or diarrhea. Constipation is usually resolved with a daily dose of 4-5 tablespoons/day and diarrhea/loose stools usually resolves at a lower dose of 1-3 tablespoons/day. You shouldn't take more than 5 tbsp/day. The maintenance dose is different for each person depending on their specific symptoms. Dietary changes are often necessary to make lasting changes. In the beginning until you stabilize, it works best to take the acacia before each meal to minimize the effect of trigger foods in the meal and to calm the intestines before the food arrives.

If you find the Tummy Fiber is still not working well for you, please feel free to return it for a full refund. If you have any questions on the products, do not hesitate to contact us.

Uneven results so far.

At first I thought that I had the answer to chronic constipation. But the effects have faded quite a bit. Very hard stools and none some days. I will keep working with the amount I use. My feeling is that eventually it will work the way I had hoped for. It is not possible for me to follow the diet so that has some effect. I live in a community and what is prepared is what there is. I am 75 years old and in poor health. I cannot cook for myself.

Feedback Rating

Hi Robert - I'm so sorry your results with the Tummy Fiber have faded a bit. That usually means you simply need to gradually increase your dose a bit higher. Sometimes people stabilize at a certain dose, and then something comes along that upsets their gut, and they need to raise their Tummy Fiber dose to get back on track. That's okay, the fiber is flexible that way, so you can adjust your dose depending on how you're doing. Just make sure you increase your dose gradually, maybe by an extra teaspoon every 4 days or so.

I hope you are feeling better soon.

I start each day and end each evening with a cup of Peppermint Tummy tea. This has made all the difference in my IBS discomfort. It is such a great minty tea that my family shares it, too.

I'm assuming number 1 is excellent.

REVERSING IBS!!! HEATHER YOUR AWESOME!!!
Dear Heather, I am 17, and have had food issues, originally thought to be allergies, for at least three years or more. At first, it seemed to be certain things like carrots and cabbage, but last year, it increased to the point where it almost seemed as though everything I ate caused diareaha, constipation, and even widespread muscle and joint pain. This led to the idea that perhaps I had fybromyalgia, and I went on with that idea until I noticed that all of my food issues had one thing in common: Beta carotine, or Vitamin A. I know now that it was merely a coincidence, that the vegatables containing high amounts of insoluable fiber also contain beta carotine, but at the time i thought that it alone was the source of my troubles. Long story shorter, after going to my doctor, he directed me to an allergist, who diagnosed me with IBS. Even after I had an actual diagnosis, I still didnt know what to do. I employed the mighty power of google, but still any true answers, much less a cure, was not to be found. I was beginning to struggle with self pity until I spoke to a person I respect very much, a former sunday school teacher of mine. She told me that she had had IBS over twenty years ago, and because of careful eating, she was able to reverse her IBS completely! So I started doing what this lady had done. I stayed away from citrus, from spicy foods, and I ate a lot of bread, rice and pasta. I took Tums before and after every meal, I drank a considerable amount of water, and I switched from regular milk to soy milk. And gradually my stomach settled down. and then I snuck in a candy bar or two. and then it was orange juice, and maybe a french fry here and there. And lo and behold, it's been four months and I am having virtually no problem with my IBS! In my early days of diagnosis, I ran across your website, and IT WAS A GODSEND. I had NO Idea that there were two kinds of fiber, much less that one of them could actually hurt me! I'm sorry this is sort of long, but I am SO grateful to you because IM REVERSING MY IBS!!! I can eat virtually anything i want WITHOUT Tums! I'm able to eat more food, and I had a great big salad the other day for the first time in MONTHS. It felt fantastic to eat salad!! I feel like I have my life back! Thank you so much!!!
