Product Description

Heather's Tummy Fiber; ~ Organic Acacia Senegal is a medical food for the dietary management of Irritable Bowel Syndrome symptoms. It is 100% acacia senegal, the highest grade available, and a natural, pure, organic, soluble dietary fiber produced from the gum of the Acacia tree. Clinical studies have shown that soluble fiber, as part of the diet: helps soothe and regulate bowel motility; relieves IBS abdominal pain and cramping by stabilizing intestinal contractions; alleviates BOTH diarrhea and constipation. Heather's Tummy Fiber also: increases good gut flora - it's considered a prebiotic; has excellent gastrointestinal tolerance; and slows down colonic fermentation, which in turn decreases gas and bloating. Heather's Tummy Fiber is completely safe and healthy for daily, lifelong use, is safe for use in children, and has no GI irritants or stimulants. Soluble fiber will not compromise normal bowel function at all once it gets your IBS symptoms under control - it will simply keep things in that normal state. A soluble fiber supplement is meant to keep your GI tract running smoothly, comfortably, and pain-free on a day-to-day basis, now and forever. Heather's Tummy Fiber is NOT a drug, it is NOT a laxative, it is NOT an anti-diarrheal medication. Acacia is simply an organic, prebiotic soluble fiber supplement with absolutely nothing else added, and it normalizes bowel function naturally in the same manner as soluble fiber foods. Certified organic by QAI, vegan, and certified kosher. Contains no gluten, sugar, salt, corn, soy, or yeast.

I've dealt with IBS for over 8 years. When it had gotten so bad I couldn't leave the house anymore, I decided enough was enough. I did a search for IBS and found Heather's website. I ordered the Acacia (Tummy Fiber) right away, then later the books. The fiber is wonderful! It doesn't get gritty, and you can add it to soft foods as well, like applesauce. There is NO taste or texture to it at all, as is it completely soluble. Just make sure you put the fiber in a glass first, then add the liquid, stirring with a fork. If for some reason it doesn't mix all the way, which is rare, just let it sit for a few minutes. I also have been on the diet, and am using her peppermint capsules. And now, I CAN LEAVE THE HOUSE!!! I can venture away from the bathroom like a normal person. I have my life back.
And the Acacia helps all three types of IBS. I just wish I would had found it sooner.

It also ships quickly, just one more plus. I can't say enough good things about Heather and her products. I'm ordering more right now. Give it a try, don't let IBS hold you hostage anymore. You won't regret trying the Acacia.

My IBS symptoms (mixed) reemerged horribly after having to discontinue a serotonin-based antidepressant due to a rash. I had weeks of incredibly painful symptoms and nothing worked, not even medication from the doctor. I was taking Fibercon caps which did no good. In desperation I tried a low dose of acacia powder and also later, one peppermint capsule a day. A complete turnaround occurred in just a few days, also helped by suggestions on the helpforibs.com website, and I have been doing well ever since. Based on the timeframe,it appears the acacia powder was the most significant agent. I am a complete skeptic so I can tell you this was not a placebo effect. I didn't think it would work and when it did, I was surprised and so grateful.

I love this stuff! It took me the better part of a month to really see noticeable results, but ever since then I'm going to the bathroom not just once, but twice a day. Only someone who has suffered with IBS for years can understand how thrilling this is. I wasn't sure if this was helping me at first, so I emailed the company, and Heather herself actually wrote me back! It turned out I just needed to keep gradually increasing my dose, and that did the trick. Patience and persistence were worth it in this case - I will never give up my Tummy Fiber!
