Hi there - Christianne has good advice, make sure you're taking enough water with the supplement. But, you do not have to take a supplement at all. Some folks simply cannot tolerate them, and some folks don't need them. If you can keep your symptoms under control without them, that's just fine. I don't actually use them every day myself unless I start feeling touchy. The soluble fiber foods alone are enough to keep me stable.

It's all soluble fiber in the end - from foods or supplements, it doesn't make a difference. So listen to your own body here.
