Fiber questions - Heather?       08/29/03 06:32 PM Edit Reply Quote ruby333 Reged: 08/23/03 Posts: 7 I'm IBS-C and I've been taking Ultra Fibre supplements for the past couple of weeks. They've helped me go, but they don't help the bowel spasms/cramping/pain. The supplements are mainly psyllium and prune and I've read in past posts that psyllium can worsen bowel spasms. I live in Canada, so there aren't many fibre supplements to choose from, especially in terms of capsules (liquid forms make me nauseous). My main questions are: what ingredients should I be looking for in a fibre supplement? How do I know if it's soluble/insoluble? What are good alternatives to psyllium-based fibre? Thanks for the help! Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
