funny that you posted this today, I was going to post a similiar question. I am about to go on a trip in a couple of weeks, so I needed to know what insoloubles are portable to take. or course my little V8 containers are coming with!
I am an Aer, too, and I have noticed that if I find an insolouble that works, it is best to not overdo it! Your body, like mine, probably was able to work with the V8 for awhile, than got used to it. Try alternating every couple of days the insoulble that you use. I personally ALWAYS eat an insolouble at breakfast, because I like to get everything out of my system before I go to work and school.
One morning it will be oatmeal with bluberries microwaved or a pear, bowl of kix with a kiwi or strawberries, bagel with microwaved veggies or a V8. I also noticed that if I don't overdo it on mangoes that they can help, even though they are solouble. variety is the only thing that keeps me stable now, before I would find something that worked and stick to it, but in the end I would just get my body sick of it.
Hope I helped alittle.

Thanks Sherri! I bet that is what happened. But, I haven't added any other insolubles other than pealed apples and V8.  I am too scared.I don't want to have D at work, because that is when it always happens to me and it is so embarrasing when somone walks in the bathroom . I hate that feeling.  I am going to try adding rasins and maybe grapes.

I looked at quite a few apple sauses and they all stated that they had corn in them. What brand do you buy?
I make my own (really, you just cut up apples, add a little water, and heat it on the stove for 30 minutes) or I get an organic brand from Whole Foods. Try looking for "unsweetened" on the label....

Yes, I am taking 2 1/2 Tablespoons of Acacia, and no I have no time to exercise, I have my wedding coming up in a month, so I am short on time.
Try your best even to take a couple of 10 minute walks during the day or do some yoga stretches and meditation. Sounds like you might be tense and on-the-go all day long, which is something your colon does not approve of!

Try Mott's Applesauce. It is 100% natural with vitamin C. You can find in at your grocer's. It is made by Healthy Harvest.
I have never heard of corn being in applesauce, but I am learning a lot of new things.
Hang in there!
P.s. glad the V8 is working for you. I am drinking one small can every other day until my system gets use to it.

I will look for that. Maybe I hould up my intake of V8. It was working with a small glass, now no such luck. I guess, I have to drink a large glass. We'll see.
