Ana, I'm a D (never had C), so I can't help you out much here; I'm sorry. But you need the insolubles. Odd that you would have C AFTER incorporating some insolubles into your diet; it would seem that it should be the other way around.

How long has it been since you started adding in the fruit and veggies? Maybe your body is still adjusting. Also, you're taking in 2TSP of acacia a day. Is that Tablespoons? Or Teaspoons? How long have you been at that dosage? Perhaps it's time to being increasing a little bit.

I just think the body needs time to adjust to any big change. Adjusting your soluble fiber supplement is a big change, as well as adding in more fruits and veggies. The body is so incredible sensitive, especially for us IBS-ers.

What kind of fruit are you eating? Any blueberries? They really make me "GO", big time. They're my favorite fruit, so I tend to eat more of them than any other, but I have to use them sparingly because, well, I'm a D, and as I said they make me go. Give them a try -- but only a few. How about some home made blueberry pancakes? With wild blueberry jam -- oooooh baby!

Someone else will have to confirm that fruit and veggies cause C -- cause I have a hard time believing it's true. But you're not at all "slow," don't think that. If anything, your body is slow -- slow to adjust. Just like all of us. Be gentle with yourself, Girlfriend.

Bev
