The Miracle of Psyllium -- QUESTION

Hello, all!

Aside from everything else I've learned from Heather's books, learning about the miracle of psyllium was well worth the price of both volumes! I've been using Natural Brand Colon Pure from GNC for two months. The use of psyllium has had a dramatic impact upon my digestion specifically and my peace of mind in general.

Having said that, I have a question. I notice on the label it states, "If you are taking a prescription medication by mouth, take this product at least two hours before or two hours after the prescribed medicine." Based on that, one can only presume that the psyllium interfers with the digestive tract's absorbtion process--the psyllium absorbing the medicine before the body can.

Now the question: Would it stand to reason that the psyllium, when taken within two hours of a meal, would also absord the nutrients from the food?

If anyone has the answer, it certain would be appreciated.

Jay
