Re: Question regarding IBS-C       10/29/09 09:48 PM Edit Reply Quote frygurl Reged: 08/18/09 Posts: 332 It is my understanding that the EFI diet is meant to stabilize the gut. Soluble fiber in the foods you mentioned keeps the gut from spasming too much (in the case of diarrhea) or from seizing up completely (in the case of constipation). I've had great success with constipation relief using the acacia fiber supplement and following the diet. However, it's especially important to help relieve constipation by consuming as much insoluble fiber as you can tolerate (but always eat with soluble fiber). Exercise and lots of water will also help with constipation, in combination with the diet and a fiber supplement. Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
