Thanks for the link! It advises the following "Soluble fiber foods and supplements will stabilize the GI contractions that are going haywire with IBS and causing pain, and will normalize bowel function from either extreme (diarrhea AND constipation). So stick to foods like plain white rice, oatmeal, pasta, white breads, peeled potatoes, etc. Boring, I know, but it's just a few days. Make sure you've added in a prebiotic soluble fiber supplement like Acacia Tummy Fiber, too - this is crucial for getting IBS under control."

Unfortunately, my naturally high blood sugar does not permit me to eat some of these foods including white bread, peeled potatoes and pasta because they raise my blood sugar and have been causing diabetes-like problems. So, in addition to not eating high fiber, dairy, sodas, juices and deep-fried foods, I also have to lay off all desserts, candy, pasta, alcoholic beverages, etc. that increase my blood sugar in the hope that my pre-diabetic problems will clear up. It's a challenge, to say the least.
