My 12 year old daughter has been suffering from really acute irritable bowel for the past month. I just thoroughly looked at your website and ordered a can of the Acacia Tummy Fiber. How would I use that (doseage-wise) on a 12 yr old?

It would be the same dose as for an adult... new

start her at 1/2 level teaspoon twice daily, and gradually increase until she's stable.

Best,
Heather

Thank you, Heather. I just placed my order for the Acacia product tonight. Both my daughter and I have been quite frustrated and tonight I somehow stumbled onto your website. I think this will bring a ton of help to us to deal with this. I also was quite encouraged seeing a posting of another young girl just diagnosed with this same thing! Anybody with any encouraging thoughts, we need them!
