I was up to 3T/day and increasing it. That's too much for me. It caused bloating, gas, URGENCY -- not a pretty picture -- but I was over the maximum of 15g/day when I started increasing it. That's too much.
"What would be the max" is what your body can tolerate, no more. Obviously I reached my max, and I think I had reached it before I got to the 15g/day, because I had been having a LOT of gas and uncomfortable bloating (and occasionally unexpected urgency at the worst times). What I have to do is drop back on my dosage and find my limit. I had 1T this morning, and I was okay for awhile, but then experienced a little gas and bloating. So tomorrow I think I'm gonna try 2t in the morning and 2t in the evening and see how I do. Seems that should be a little gentler on my system.
While 2T/day sounds reasonable, I don't think it is for me. However, what's max for me ain't necessarily max for you. You might be able to tolerate more than I can. For example, Mags tolerates no more than 8g/day, while I think Linzy said she tolerates 10g/day.
How do you feel with 2T+1t/day? Any gas, bloating, cramps, URGENCY? If not, I'd say you're good to go! But if so, then I'd cut back a little. Really, I don't know of any other way to determine what your own tolerance level is.
