Thank you for psyllium suggestions

Thank you for those on this forum that have recommended psyllium. Although I've enjoyed remission for some time now, the psyllium added to my entourage of treatment has really helped normalize things even further. You guys are great!

take the capsules if you're having discomfort. Take one capsule with each meal or even one capsule a day for a few days and then add another one to another meal...etc.

Do, however, read the ingredients...some might have lactose or ingredients one might not want.

I use Metamucil brand (from costco on sale) or Super Store brand. You could also check out nutrition stores and see what they have as well.

Most dosage is 500mg per capsule.

Meemers,
We have found that psyllium seed powder does not cause as much bloating as the psyllium husk does. Maybe because there is less fiber? We have also found that the psyllium seed powder and probiotics seem to work very well together.
The psyllium seed powder has worked wonders for us. We mix it with applesauce, cinnamon and VSL#3DS.

Best of Luck,

Yeah psyllium was definitely a good thing for me as well, it cut my bm's per day by more than a half instantly. Mucus, urgency, etc would remain but at least its much less frequent!

I tried the metamucil and benefiber and didn't see too much difference. Started with palmfuls of the Konsyl and noticed huge difference. Walmart recently changed the type of Konsyl they sell and I have already noticed a difference within the same brand.... wierd.
