Do you take it before dinner or just before bed? Does it matter?

I take mine before dinner.

IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!

I take 2 does - first thing when I get up in the morning and when I come home from work at night (which is midnight, so in other words, right before I go to bed.) Mornings are always worst for me so I find it works best if I orient my SFS dosages around that. HTH

i take 2: acacia and psyllium. i take the acacia mid-day in a smoothie or yogurt--sometimes tea if i forget and i take the psyllium @ night [i heard it causes bloat and didnt want that during the day, though i dont find much trouble at nighttime, i still prefer the night]

Hi all. I was wondering about the doses people take for constipation. I really haven't had much luck with any other SFS including acacia (darnit)but I am getting some results with psyllium. I have been messing with it for a couple of weeks now and was up to 1 tsp (5grms) 3 times a day but I still was constipated at the end (hard stool sorry TMI) It's working but with it not speeding upas yet I am a little bloated and somewhat gassy.Has anyone ever trie 2 tsp at once at night? I just don't want to be a mess the next day but I'm thinking maybe I need the added push. Thanks for any info, this is so hard working through the constipation,bloat gas part (very humbling)
