Have been taking Acacia for around a week now, don't know if it's coincidence or not but I seem to have had D every second day or so since starting taking it. Before I usually just had D when I was really anxious about something or eaten something like dairy etc. I've been taking roughly 1/2 teaspoon in the morning and then another 1/2 around my evening meal.

Do you think I should give it more time to settle down or decrease what I'm taking?

All advice gladly received, this has taken over the life of me and my family and I'm so fed up.

I would reduce it to 1/2 teaspoon a day. After a week or so, add another 1/4 or 1/2 teaspoon. Remember to increase it very slowly and gradually, or you're likely to trigger more diarrhea.
