How many grams did you start with and how long did you stay at that amount? What is your "maintainance dose?

Do you take any other supplements with the triphala...like SFS or magnesium or probiotics?

Thanks!

Are you still on that and how long has it been for you? HOw much do you take? I wonder if I didn't give it enough time. I did notice it helped bloating but I was messing with too many other things at the time to tell if it helped my bm's. I wonder if I can try it again...and if it's okay to take while pregnant. I'll have to ask my doctor, but I should probably wait until after the baby just in case. I'm just sticking to my miralax right now since that's about all that's safe, and it works, but I have to double up on the dosage. Have you thought of trying it yet or are you still debating?

Love Jessica

Sorry it took so long for me to respond. I take Nature's Herbs right now although I have taken many different brands as I find them and they have all been equally effective.I currently take 2200 mg/day but in the beginning I was taking 4995 mg/day. As I began to feel better, I started to cut back. This is where I am now and I am afraid to go any lower

Is it pretty safe to be taking all that? You can take it long term right? Does it help your BM's AND bloating? How long has it been working? Hopefully it's not one of those things that only lasts short term. Sounds great though, you are the first success story I've heard on Triphala!
