Best thing I've tried
I've been having issues for a little over a year. They can't find anything wrong but nothing moves in it's own. with the prescription meds, I couldn't leave the house until afternoon. I've been trying and taking so many things to find relief. I've been in this for a few weeks now. I'm currently using a tsp in the morning and one at night. I'm finally feeling more like myself. I'm going regularly every morning, my bloating is way down and I don't feel like I'm pregnant with what we call my â€œpoop babyâ€�! I'm currently in a trip, and I'm so glad I bought the travel packs. I missed an evening the day we flew in, but I was still good in the morning! I have no need to try anything else.

Hi Geraldine - please check with your own doctor, but the Tummy Fiber is just 100% soluble fiber. Soluble fiber actually helps lower high blood pressure in hypertensives, it will not raise blood pressure or affect blood pressure negatively if you already have normal blood pressure. XOXO Heather

Hi Christine - I'm so sorry to hear this, please hang in there, the tummy fiber won't help you until there is enough of it in your gut 24/7 to regulate motility. In the meantime everything that is impacting your gut will keep impacting it. It's a process to work up your dose, and if you just started that you're still on a very low end. Details:

There are two kinds of fiber, insoluble and soluble. Insoluble is a stimulant and can set off IBS symptoms, and if you have strictures it can cause intestinal blockages. The tummy fiber is pure soluble fiber so it won't do that - it can't. It's not a stimulant, it's a bowel motility regulator. It can't cause blockages, diarrhea, or constipation, but it also will not help you until you gradually work up to enough of it in your gut, 24/7, to regulate motility.

In the meantime, everything else will keep impacting your gut and you will likely keep fluctuating day to day. The tummy fiber is 100% soluble fiber, it can't make anything worse, but it also will not help you with just the first dose or two, or first few days or two. For constipation, it likely won't help the first week or two either. This is because you are starting at a low dose that won't do anything at all, it is just to get your gut used to more fiber gradually. All fibers are indigestible, so you always want to increase fiber slowly and steadily,

Do not skip doses, do not jump your dose up and then down and then up and then down, do not skip days - none of this will work. This is a process, it can't be erratic, it takes some time and patience, and you have to follow the process consistently, day in and day out, or soluble fiber will not do what you want it to do.

You need to start with just ½ teaspoon twice daily and then gradually increase. Add an extra ½ teaspoon to just one of your doses, every 3-4 days. So add an extra ½ teaspoon to your morning dose, wait 3-4 days and then add an extra ½ teaspoon to your evening dose, wait 3-4 days and then increase your morning dose again, etc. You'll keep following that pattern and gradually work up to the dose your gut needs for normal motility. A rough average final dose for diarrhea is 1-3 Tablespoons per day total, for alternating diarrhea/constipation probably 2-3 Tablespoons per day total, and constipation a likely 3-5 Tablespoons per day total. That shows you the huge dose range, and also how far you will likely have to increase from the starting dose of just ½ teaspoon twice a day.

The fiber cannot make anything worse, but again, until you gradually work up to enough of it in your gut, it won't help you either, because it has to reach the point where it can control your bowel motility. You just will not have enough of it in your gut to affect you at all until you have worked your way far enough into the process.

I will tell you candidly it will probably take you a few months to work up to the dose you would need to resolve chronic constipation, and in the meantime you'll still have symptoms, and you may need to use laxatives if you're already doing that. You should see improvements kick in as you gradually get your dose up around 3 tablespoons per day total, and then you'd keep gradually increasing until you feel stable day and day out. You can't just jump to this dose though - fiber does not work that way. I wish it did! But you have to gradually get your gut used to more fiber, and then reach the point you need for motility regulation. Once you hit that you stay at whatever that dose is, morning and evening, as soluble fiber literally only works when it is physically present in your gut.

Takes a minute to get used to it!
Takes a minute to get used to it and remembering to use it twice daily! Only thing I don't like is it changes the consistency of the food you add it to! Thins out yogurt, makes avacado thick! So I started adding too water, tastes gross in water but seems to do the trick as long as you use it twice daily! Better than using metamusil that just seems to make constipation worse!!

I'm still not sure that this product helps me.

Speed of Delivery

Customer Service

Heather says:

Hi Janet - please let us know details and we'll help. We normally recommend starting with 1/2 teaspoon twice a day (daily dose of 1 teaspoon total). Every 4 days or so, add an extra 1/2 teaspoon to one of your daily doses. Alternate which dose you increase so you are going slow and steady.
You don't want to increase your dose too much, too quickly, as your gut needs to get used to any fiber increase gradually. All fibers are indigestible, so suddenly or drastically increasing your dose can cause bloating and gas.
Keep stepping up your dose every 3-5 days or so until you gradually reach the dose that resolves your constipation and/or diarrhea.
In general, constipation resolves at 3-5 tablespoons/day and diarrhea at a lower dose, typically 1-3 tablespoons/day. If your symptoms resolve at a lower dose than is typical, stay there. If you need more than the average dose, that is just fine, continue to gradually increase.
The fiber will work regardless of how you take it - added to plain water, sprinkled over moist foods, added to foods you cook, on an empty stomach, full stomach, etc. In general, it's usually most helpful to take the fiber right before or right in a meal as it will help keep your gut calm after you eat.
Please keep us posted.

Customer Service

Heather says:

Hi Diana - I'm so sorry to hear you had trouble. Please note the fiber is granulated to dissolve best in room temp liquids. For something like hot coffee, add the powder to dry cup first, add just barely enough room temp liquid (water, coffee, whatever) to liquefy, and then add the rest of the hot coffee. That will be much faster and easier. Or just add the powder directly into moist foods with meals, you don't have to have with liquids at all.
And just fyi, coffee is a huge GI irritant, even decaf, so be careful - see here https://www.helpforibs.com/news/coffee-ibs.asp It will be much easier on your gut to get caffeine if you need it from black or green tea.
You might try switching to adding the powder to breakfast/dinner foods to make this as easy as possible. If that's not a good option for you please do return for a full refund, no time limits, never a problem.

Then I added this product. Combined they take care of the problem. To those who have been constipated for life,I recommend a colonoscopy to check for polyps and diverticulosis.

I am very pleased with the effects of the acacia fiber...thank goodness for a product that really does what it promises.
This does not dissolve instantly. Add it to liquid or any food but, give it a few seconds to soak and then stir it into the liquid or other foods to distribute it. . . Not a problem ... just a little technic.

This has helped me so much!
I have been struggling with IBS for several years. My flare ups coincide with travel especially. Lately it can be a small day trip even. Using the fiber has helped me with the urgency and frequency and cramps ( the peppermint pills helped also with cramps). I bought the travel fiber packets and bring those with a small cup and water bottle when I go anywhere for several hours or more. I used to treat the IBS with over the counter remedies, which were worked but can't be used frequently. This is natural. I use it everyday - morning and evening and extra when I'm going out or traveling. I am so grateful- thank you!

Heather says:

Hi Lynn - I'm so sorry, please hang in there, the tummy fiber cannot cause or worsen diarrhea or constipation, or flip one to the other, but it also won't help you until there is enough of it in your gut 24/7 to regulate motility. In the meantime everything that is impacting your gut will keep impacting it. It's a process to work up your dose of any soluble fiber supplement, and you are still on a very low end if it's only been two weeks.
Details:

There are two kinds of fiber, insoluble and soluble. Insoluble is a stimulant and can set off IBS symptoms, and if you have strictures it can cause intestinal blockages. The tummy fiber is pure soluble fiber so it won't do that - it can't. It's not a stimulant, it's a bowel motility regulator. It can't cause blockages, diarrhea, or constipation, but it also will not help you until you gradually work up to enough of it in your gut, 24/7, to regulate motility.

In the meantime, everything else will keep impacting your gut and you will likely keep fluctuating day to day. The tummy fiber is 100% soluble fiber, it can't make anything worse, but it also will not help you with just the first dose or two, or first few days or two. For constipation, it likely won't help the first week or two either. This is because you are starting at a low dose that won't do anything at all, it is just to get your gut used to more fiber gradually. All fibers are indigestible, so you always want to increase fiber slowly and steadily,

Do not skip doses, do not jump your dose up and then down and then up and then down, do not skip days - none of this will work. This is a process, it can't be erratic, it takes some time and patience, and you have to follow the process consistently, day in and day out, or soluble fiber will not do what you want it to do.

You need to start with just ½ teaspoon twice daily and then gradually increase. Add an extra ½ teaspoon to just one of your doses, every 3-4 days. So add an extra ½ teaspoon to your morning dose, wait 3-4 days and then add an extra ½ teaspoon to your evening dose, wait 3-4 days and then increase your morning dose again, etc. You'll keep following that pattern and gradually work up to the dose your gut needs for normal motility. A rough average final dose for diarrhea is 1-3 Tablespoons per day total, for alternating diarrhea/constipation probably 2-3 Tablespoons per day total, and constipation a likely 3-5 Tablespoons per day total. That shows you the huge dose range, and also how far you will likely have to increase from the starting dose of just ½ teaspoon twice a day.

The fiber cannot make anything worse, but again, until you gradually work up to enough of it in your gut, it won't help you either, because it has to reach the point where it can control your bowel motility. You just will not have enough of it in your gut to affect you at all until you have worked your way far enough into the process.

I will tell you candidly it will probably take you a few months to work up to the dose you would need to resolve chronic constipation, and in the meantime you'll still have symptoms, and you may need to use laxatives if you're already doing that. You should see improvements kick in as you gradually get your dose up around 3 tablespoons per day total, and then you'd keep gradually increasing until you feel stable day and day out. You can't just jump to this dose though - fiber does not work that way. I wish it did! But you have to gradually get your gut used to more fiber, and then reach the point you need for motility regulation. Once you hit that you stay at whatever that dose is, morning and evening, as soluble fiber literally only works when it is physically present in your gut.

There is also a video that explains how all this works down the page here https://www.heatherstummycare.com/p/suplmts_acacia-can/tummy-fiber-acacia-senegal-can/

Hi Jane - thank you for your feedback. It is good news that you got a diagnosis, and if it's just lactose intolerance and not IBS that should be really manageable by just avoiding the lactose.

Excellent Fiber for IBS (no taste, odor, or grit)
I've taken fiber for years to help with my IBS but have been taking psyllium husk (I now know through reading Heather's information that psyllium may have been adding to my IBS troubles). I was worried this would be gritty, not taste good, or have an odor. I love this fiber! Absolutely no taste or odor! It dissolves in water completely (stir, wait a minute, stir again). I'm still gradually increasing my dose trying to reach the optimum for my needs- but it has helped already and I'm only on my 2nd week.

IBS-D Improvements in Just 24 hours
I have tried many things to help ease my IBS-D with very limited positive results, until I stumbled on this Acacia Senegal. I was skeptical based on my experience with other products but I have to say I was pleasantly surprised if not shocked to experience some noticeable relief within the first day, taking just 1/2 teaspoon twice daily. Now a few weeks into using Acacia, my symptoms are much better and I can finally feel a bit more confident leaving the house without worrying. While I imagine results vary for each individual, for me, the relief is real and was very fast; and 1 and 1/2 teaspoons daily seems to be all I need. I will definitely continue using Acacia Senegal and am thankful that I learned about it. If you have IBS-D I strongly recommend giving this a try. For those concerned about some reviewers saying they have trouble getting the powder to fully dissolve, I have discovered (sort of by accident as I got distracted by the kids one morning after the first stir) that stirring in the powder the first time and then letting it sit for more like 10 minutes, the Acacia is completely dissolved. I give it a quick second stir after the 10 minutes and there is no sign of any powder or gel like some others have described. Try it!

required to use on/in ROOM TEMPATURE most drinks are either hot or cold room temp means having to wait till they cool off and than reheat, so far it hasn't helped me. Imodium has helped a little more than the powder.

use at room temp a pain in the neck but I do it, so far hasn't helped my diarrhea.

Hi Elsie - no worries! You don' have to add the tummy fiber to any liquid at all. Just sprinkle the dry powder right into any moist foods, of any temperature, with breakfast and dinner. Oatmeal, rice, casseroles, sauces, applesauce, anything with moisture. It will melt right in, that is a super easy way to use it. For resolving diarrhea, that is about the dosage and a process of gradually increasing to what your gut needs. Details:
There are two kinds of fiber, insoluble and soluble. Insoluble is a stimulant and can set off IBS symptoms, and if you have strictures it can cause intestinal blockages.

Soluble fiber won't do that - it can't. It's not a stimulant, it's a bowel motility regulator. It can't cause blockages, diarrhea, or constipation, but it also will not help you until you gradually work up to enough of it in your gut, 24/7, to regulate motility. In the meantime, everything else will keep impacting your gut and you will likely keep fluctuating day to day. The tummy fiber is 100% soluble fiber, it can't make anything worse, but it also will not help you with just the first dose or two, or first few days or two. For constipation, it likely won't help the first week or two either. This is because you are starting at a low dose that won't do anything at all, it is just to get your gut used to more fiber gradually. All fibers are indigestible, so you always want to increase fiber slowly and steadily,

Do not skip doses, do not jump your dose up and then down and then up and then down, do not skip days - none of this will work. This is a process, it can't be erratic, it takes some time and patience, and you have to follow the process consistently, day in and day out, or soluble fiber will not do what you want it to do.

You need to start with just ½ teaspoon twice daily and then gradually increase. Add an extra ½ teaspoon to just one of your doses, every 3-4 days. So add an extra ½ teaspoon to your morning dose, wait 3-4 days and then add an extra ½ teaspoon to your evening dose, wait 3-4 days and then increase your morning dose again, etc. You'll keep following that pattern and gradually work up to the dose your gut needs for normal motility. A rough average final dose for diarrhea is 1-3 Tablespoons per day total, for alternating diarrhea/constipation probably 2-3 Tablespoons per day total, and constipation a likely 3-5 Tablespoons per day total. That shows you the huge dose range, and also how far you will likely have to increase from the starting dose of just ½ teaspoon twice a day.

The fiber cannot make anything worse, but again, until you gradually work up to enough of it in your gut, it won't help you either, because it has to reach the point where it can control your bowel motility. You just will not have enough of it in your gut to affect you at all until you have worked your way far enough into the process.

Please keep us posted.

XOXO

Heather says:

Hello Jody - We are so sorry to hear that you have been experiencing episodes with IBS-D in the past couple of weeks. The pain that comes in unison with IBS attacks is something that no one should ever have to experience. Please keep gradually increasing your tummy fiber dose, as you need to work up to what your gut needs for normal motility day in and day out. For diarrhea that is likely a total 1-3 tablespoons per day total, but it will take at least a few weeks to work up to that.

Soluble fiber can't cause blockages, diarrhea, or constipation, but it also will not help you until you gradually work up to enough of it in your gut, 24/7, to regulate motility.

Really seems to be working
I ordered this blindly hoping that it would actually help. It really is tasteless (not all powders that say they are really are) and dissolves easily. I take it combined with the fennel peppermint caps. I'm not sure if either would work without the other, but it doesn't really matter to me. I have had to have a feeding tube placed because I have severe weight loss from IBS issues. I am hoping eventually, I will be able to eat again and be a normal person, one not afraid to go out anywhere because something embarrassing might happen (again).

Heather says:

Hello Lawrence - I'm so sorry you're going throught this. Please hang in there.

There are two kinds of fiber, insoluble and soluble. Insoluble is a stimulant and can set off IBS symptoms, and if you have strictures it can cause intestinal blockages.

Soluble fiber won't do that - it can't. It's not a stimulant, it's a bowel motility regulator. It can't cause blockages, diarrhea, or constipation, but it also will not help you until you gradually work up to enough of it in your gut, 24/7, to regulate motility. In the meantime, everything else will keep impacting your gut and you will likely keep fluctuating day to day. The tummy fiber is 100% soluble fiber, it can't make anything worse, but it also will not help you with just the first dose or two, or first few days or two. For constipation, it likely won't help the first week or two either. This is because you are starting at a low dose that won't do anything at all, it is just to get your gut used to more fiber gradually. All fibers are indigestible, so you always want to increase fiber slowly and steadily,

Do not skip doses, do not jump your dose up and then down and then up and then down, do not skip days - none of this will work. This is a process, it can't be erratic, it takes some time and patience, and you have to follow the process consistently, day in and day out, or soluble fiber will not do what you want it to do.

You need to start with just ½ teaspoon twice daily and then gradually increase. Add an extra ½ teaspoon to just one of your doses, every 3-4 days. So add an extra ½ teaspoon to your morning dose, wait 3-4 days and then add an extra ½ teaspoon to your evening dose, wait 3-4 days and then increase your morning dose again, etc. You'll keep following that pattern and gradually work up to the dose your gut needs for normal motility. A rough average final dose for diarrhea is 1-3 Tablespoons per day total, for alternating diarrhea/constipation probably 2-3 Tablespoons per day total, and constipation a likely 3-5 Tablespoons per day total. That shows you the huge dose range, and also how far you will likely have to increase from the starting dose of just ½ teaspoon twice a day.

The fiber cannot make anything worse, but again, until you gradually work up to enough of it in your gut, it won't help you either, because it has to reach the point where it can control your bowel motility. You just will not have enough of it in your gut to affect you at all until you have worked your way far enough into the process.

I will tell you candidly it will probably take you a few months to work up to the dose you would need to resolve chronic constipation, and in the meantime you'll still have symptoms, and you may need to use laxatives if you're already doing that. You should see improvements kick in as you gradually get your dose up around 3 tablespoons per day total, and then you'd keep gradually increasing until you feel stable day and day out. You can't just jump to this dose though - fiber does not work that way. I wish it did! But you have to gradually get your gut used to more fiber, and then reach the point you need for motility regulation. Once you hit that you stay at whatever that dose is, morning and evening, as soluble fiber literally only works when it is physically present in your gut.

Please keep me posted,

XOXO

Seems to have made a big difference.
I've been using this can of loose soluble fiber for about 3 weeks. Just about 1 teaspoon a day mixed in with yogurt or cereal. And I've stopped hurting and no longer have loose stools. This is coinciding with all home cooked meals, and more walking during stay at home pandemic times, which might also contribute to my gut settling down, but I think the daily soluble fiber and occasional fennel tea are really helping. I was miserable a month ago with gut pain and diarrhia.
