Yes it can help for both constipation and irritable bowel syndrome. Be sure to drink plenty of fluids for the best effect. Its ingredient (psylium) is a natural product. It can cause increased intestinal gas in some people, however. If it causes too much gas, you can also try a semi-synthetic or synthetic (methyl-cellulose) over-the-counter fiber product such as Citrucel and Fibercon.

A family member has used it. Apparently, it wasn't as successful for them as it has been for other people. I, on the other hand, have tried it. It worked well for me. Take a chance, unless your doc says no.
