I am a huge fan of fiber. As an IBS sufferer and a health conscious person, I know fiber does all kinds of good things for me, including keeping me regular which sounds silly but isn’t so funny when a week passes and you feel like you’re about to explode. I was recommend the Lady Soma Fiber Cleanse by my doctor – and this is a fiber like no other. It is amazing. Each dose contains natural, soluble dietary fiber extracted from the seeds of the cluster bean.

It is 100% natural fiber.I had never heard of Lady Soma products, but i am so glad they were recommended. So I am recommending them to you. . .its an excellent choice for maintaining regularity and supplementing you

I guess everyone really is different. I learned the opposite. Pasta, bread, starchy foods….they send me running for the bathroom. It’s horrible. I lived my life with no control and no idea. As soon as I eliminated processed carbs…no more symptoms (didn’t figure that out until mid life). I read the recommendations for IBS (high carbs) and was shocked! I would think this would cause some people harm….I know it would do some damage to me. I had no idea they could be a cure.

I tried eating enough soluble and insoluble fiber for my IBS but it didn’t help.

In your opinion, is it okay to combine fruit and oatmeal or nuts and oatmeal?

Kelly,

In that case, I think you just proved the point of the post?

I hardly eat any soluble fiber for my severe IBS . I eat mainly insoluble fiber but I still have severe constipation. I avoid triggers too. What gives?

hi gena,
it’s funny, i don’t suffer from ibs but since i’ve gone raw i’ve started suffering from constipation big time. it’s really weird. i do eat 2 bananas and an avocado a day but maybe it’s time to add some more?
anyways, it’s great to find someone talking about constipation with raw…i’ve totally felt like a freak about it this whole time!

Gena this post was so informative! Even if someone doesn’t suffer from IBS, knowing about different kinds of fibers can only be of benefit.

Finally – it makes sense to me!

I’ve only read about insoluble/soluble fiber a million gazillion times and yet, I never really understood the difference and importance of both. I’m so glad you mentioned getting backed up, due to a lack of soluble fiber in the diet… It’s all starting to make sense now. Thanks for smartly summing up the difference and importance!
