Fiber

[Beau82]

How is everyone taking their fiber? I've been taking it around 30 minutes before dinner but I forget a lot of the time. Would it matter if I took it earlier in the day, with lunch maybe?

[Dreamsister]

Dont' know. I also always forget the fiber beforehand and then take it as topping on my meal (not nice) or as a pill after. My son thinks it is roasted spider-eggs. Yummi. Now Atomic have recommended me to quit fiber until my weight stabilizes cause I am down to 47 kilo/103 lb so need to gain weight.

With you on the forgetting bit. Mine says 30 - to 60 mins before a meal :sigh: and when its lunch time and you haven't eaten since the night before.. the last thing i can do is wait a further 30 minutes.. i always seem to remember whilst im eating.. so i take it then. Are there any fiber tabs we can take with a meal rather than 30 mins before a meal?!

I use psyllium husk powder. I think it can be taken right before your meal.

I have been taken the psyllium husk capsules and was told I could take them 1st thing or last thing with a large glass of water or jucie.
If I take them last thing, I find I can go to the loo 1st thing in the morning!

Yours from H & B too? I just take with meal or when i remember - sometimes its 5 mins before sometimes longer or less. I just dont seem to get the 30-60 mins part! :)

If you forget, just take it anyway. It will still help.

You can take it with any meal containing fat or fat soluble nutrients A, D, E, K (like leafy greens or orange veg or skim dairy)

If you're low in weight and/or have stopped ovulating drop it becuase you need some fat at that point.

I mix ground psyllium husks into cold water and drink just before meals. Sometimes I forget and have it right after. Sometimes I have it partway through, intentionally. I use it 2x a day now, bc I need it anyway for constipation! (From a medication. )

Constipation is the pits, i have that!!! Thats what i take the Aloe vera juice for!

Thanks ladies. I was just worried that taking it later might cause an upset stomach or mess with with my stomach in some way. Good to know it's not a hard and fast rule.

How and when would I incorporate psyllium husk powder into my sway? top it on a salad or soup? and its on an empty stomach before a meal?
Thanks!

Just have it before any meal containing fat or fat soluble vitamins A, D, E, K (so dark leafy greens, orange veg, skim dairy even tho those things have no fat) if you're just eating white carbs you don't need it.

I don't think you can sprinkle it on salad, I think it's meant to b mixed with water and drunk that way (I could be wrong tho). Or you can do the capsules, may be easier

You do not need the massive doses on the bottles, that is for people who are using it for other reasons like chronic constipation.
