Fiber either caused or coincided with terrible bout of constipation, so I quit using it. Tea seemed to cause bloating.

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.

Best,

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.

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.

Best,
Heather

still not working
I have had chronic constipation for a long, long time. I started out with 2 tbsp a day and finally raised it to 4. I don't have the bloating feeling but am still not going to the bathroom. Do you have any suggestions?

Hi Maureen - 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). 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. Two tablespoons per day is far too high a dose to start with. This will just overload your gut with fiber and you won't get results. Please drop your dose back down to just 1 teaspoon twice daily, and increase by just an extra ½ teaspoon to one dose every four days or so.

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.

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

Purchsing Tummy Fiber
First off I would like to say that my IBS was not as horrible as some of the cases I have heard about. It would hit me about twice a month with not to much pain, but I needed to be very near a bathroom when it did hit. The tummy fiber has both reduced the amount it has happened, and lessened the severity when it does. Also episodes dont last as long now. Since I am not a severe case I take about a tablespoon twice a day, once in the morning and once before bed. One of the best benefits is how regular and "healthy" my bowel movements are now even when I do not have any episodes. I can travel and fly with a lot more confidence now! I like that this is a preventative and natural remedy, rather than having an uneducated doctor tell cutting me a prescription for some pills after the fact. Thank you for thinking of us Heather.

I am thrilled with the results I am getting
I want to thank you for getting my Acacia Tummy Fiber to me so quickly. My supply was pretty low and I thought I might run out before the shipment arrived -- not so! Thanks again. I am thrilled with the results I am getting following your program. I think the Acacia Tummy Fiber is the main reason, secondly, I am following a strict diet of not eating trigger foods. I also love your peppermint and fennel tea -- I believe they also play an important part in keeping IBS under control. Thanks again for your dedication regarding IBS, I really did not know what I was going to do.

The Acacia Tummy Fiber is a life saver,
I just wanted to thank you for this site, as a long term sufferer of IBS and acid reflux it has helped tremendously. It seems that if my IBS is alleviated the acid reflux is almost non-existent. The Acacia Tummy Fiber is a life saver, thank you so much for that. I just started it and even though it says it might take a few weeks I've noticed a change after a few days. I used Citrucel for years but the bloating was horrible. That is my worst problem with IBS, severe bloating after I eat even just a little.

an easy way to increase my soluble fiber intake
I recently purchased your book, Eating for IBS, and have been so blessed by the recipes. I'm also finding the Tummy Fiber(another recent purchase) wonderful, because it's so versatile. Being able to mix it into soups or add it to recipes like pumpkin pie has been an easy way to increase my soluble fiber intake. I recognize that discovering your website on the internet about a month ago was the Lord's tender mercies to me in my desperate struggle to have a somewhat normal functioning of my intestinal system. After trying numerous approaches over the years of struggling with IBS, I believe Jesus has heard my cries and given me some relief through your suggestions and especially the Tummy Fiber product. I'm praising and thanking the Lord for the insights He has given you. The new direction I've received is one of the best gifts of this past year to me. May Christ bless you richly this Christmas.

this stuff is a miracle
I just wanted to let you know that the Acacia Tummy Fiber is helping me tremendously. It is literally changing my life. I have never been able to have as much success with digestion, heart burn, and bowel movements - as I do now. I'm telling you, this stuff is a miracle. I've never been able to get this type of relief, and I'm turning 30 this year. That tells you how long I've been dealing with it. I can remember having problems at 6 and 7 years old. To finally say that I am doing better makes a huge difference in my life. Thank you very much! Just wanted to say thanks!

I do not have IBS - but I am chronically constipated
Various doctors over the years have simply told me to eat more fiber, take various softners and fiber suppliments... none of which have ever done much for me. A nurse practitioner told my that I have a "hypotonic colon" so for whatever reason, my body takes out more water than it should. The past year has been very stressful for me, my problem flared up and I had been unable to bring it back under control as before. I eat mainly vegetarian anyways, drink plenty of water, walk my dog, do everything they say that you are supposed to do. A friend of mine with IBS told me about your site. I am now taking 24g of your Acacia Tummy Fiber every day and am happier with my gut than I have been in the past year. None of the fiber at stores has ever helped, I have never been able to take this amount without extreme gassiness. Your fiber is organic, doesn't gas me up and it works. I love it, it has changed my life. I can now eat the occasional bit of cheese while out with friends, eat a hamburger on occasion, basically feel like a normal person again. (Nothing in excess mind you, but enough). Thank you so very much.

problems have all but disappeared
Your information in IBS has been very helpful to me. I also ordered the Acacia for my aunt who has suffered terribly with IBS (possibly IBD). Since she stared using the Acacia regularly, her problems have all but disappeared. Thank you so much. My aunt has mentioned to me numerous times how well the Acacia worked for her. Her problems were so severe that she was having to take cortisone enemas(!) and they weren't helping. It's funny, because I mentioned to my doctor that I was making some dietary changes to help with my IBS and she told me that research had proven that diet didn't make any difference with IBS. How wrong she was.

I wanted to tell you how happy I am now
I found your website in February - ever since then, I've been reading up on others' experiences, following the diet, trying all your recipes, and taking the Acacia Tummy Fiber every day. I wanted to tell you how happy I am now, in so many ways, in comparison to a year ago! I work as the Production Editor for Alimentary Pharmacology & Therapeutics, a journal from which you regularly feature excerpts in your newsletters. Basically, I receive the hard copy manuscripts and carry them through the production process, until the journal appears on the shelf twice a month. Isn't it interesting, though, that for all the articles I read about IBS, IBD and Crohn's disease every month in my journal, your website is far more practical for a good quality of life for all of us sufferers out there! Maybe some day they'll come up with a miracle pill with no evident side effects - until then, I'll stick to your good advice.
