I've tried the Eating For IBS diet in the past and it didn't seem to work for me, but I'm at the end of my rope again and plan to give it another try. One big question I have is that some of the foods suggested for beginning the diet, like oatmeal and rice, either also have insoluble fiber (oatmeal is 50% of each type) or no fiber at all (white rice has very little fiber at all). Also, how can simply chopping up a food, like puree-ing or finely chopping vegetables, more make the soluble fiber somehow less of a problem? The insoluble fiber is still in there! Also, when I last tried the IBS diet and started taking the acacia fiber, it gave me such gas I had to quit...the gas is one of the main problems to begin with! I guess I will add it glacially slowly this time. Anyway, just some questions I have. Hope someone can help.
