Product Reviews of Heather's Tummy Fiber CAN ~ Organic Acacia Senegal 16 oz. for Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Product Review: Still not sure
Summary: 2 Stars
I think my symptoms may be more problematic than normal, as nothing seems to help. And I don't know if this product would help or not because it's such a pain to use that I haven't been able to stick with it.
The big problem is how horribly it dissolves in liquid. It's a big production of having to mix it just so - you have to, essentially, mix as you are pouring in the liquid, hot or cold, with a fork (a spoon doesn't seem to work well), otherwise it doesn't really dissolve at all, just gums up. Even doing it as instructed it still doesn't dissolve easily. It says to wait a few seconds, and then restir until all is dissolved.
I found it takes a few stirrings over a few minutes to get it to dissolve even when done as instructed. Try to vary from the instructions and you're likely to get gummy chunks that don't dissolve at all.
Most powders meant to dissolve in liquids aren't even close to being this finicky.
I'm guessing it would help to some degree, but it's just too much of a hassle, and I never noticed any improvement even when I did use it.
Product Review: Such a difference in my life
Summary: 5 Stars
I was diagnosed with IBS two months ago after roughly six months of having *no idea* what the HECK was wrong with me -- Horrible constipation and gas for months on end. I was at the end of my rope. My doctor gave me a print-out about IBS that was last edited in 1994. Not much help. I found Heather's site and purchased the acacia fiber. It was about a week before I saw any results, but when I did, WOW! I feel 1000x better then I have in almost a year. My constipation is about 80% gone; I still have some bad days but overall I feel great. It lessoned my gas dramatically, but hasn't completely eliminated it as of yet -- I'm thinking of trying the fennel tea next. If anyone is reading this and wondering "Can it help me?" YES! You should give it a try. I felt myself slipping into depression over my inability to control my body. It was really awful. I feel as if this fiber saved my sanity. I never had pain, but I had plenty of embarrassment and no matter how much time I spent in the gym my stomach was always bloated and distended. I was too young to feel so old (39) I feel as if I have my life back under control. I cannot say enough about Heather's website or her products.Product Review: Tends to get clumpy w/over a tablesoon.

Dissovles nicely w/a tsp or less but tends to clump with a Tbs. We haven't used it long enough to note improvement in our daughters stomach pain but will continue to try it...Product Review: Terrific Tummy Fiber
Summary: 4 Stars
This product is worth your consideration. Honestly it does work and it is easy to use. It dissolves in water and tastes like water. Amazon had it delivered to me here in Australia in such a short time I was amazed. For most of my life I have suffered from IBS and other tummy discomforts. I have struggled to make sure I take in enough soluable fiber but not anymore. I strongly recommend this product to anyone considering it.Product Review: Very disappointed
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased this product mainly on reviews written by users of the product. I found that it did not improve my symptoms and in fact, they became worse.
