Welcome to the forum. 

You should try to get enough of each type of fiber, and especially soluble fiber as it can decrease your risk of diabetes and high blood pressure:

That will depend on what type of gluten free foods you eat. Whole wheat is a goods source of fiber. If you buy a supplement make sure you get one that is labelled gluten free. Also most commercial fiber products are about 3/4 sugar which isn't helpful.

Both insoluble and soluble fiber can improve symptoms of IBS. Soluble fiber can reduce the symptoms of H. pylori infection in the stomach, and water balance. Insoluble fiber is food for bacteria lower down in the digestive tract.

Right now I take a little bit of guar gum and some pysllium powder (or another plant powder) with each meal.

      The critic acid and sodium citrate is corn unfortunately and they don’t have to label corn because it’s not part of the top 9 allergen and not mandatory 😭

      Yaya, from the JAMA study you refer to: "Taking 60,000 international units (IU) a day of vitamin D for several months has been shown to cause toxicity." No one on this forum is recommending  taking anywhere near that amount. We're talking about 5-10,000IU daily.

      "Doses higher than the RDA are sometimes used to treat medical problems such as vitamin D deficiency, but these are given only under the care of a doctor for a specified time frame. Blood levels should be monitored while someone is taking high doses of vitamin D." Quoted from the Healthline article @Yaya linked above...
