For those that take Psyllium Seed

What time of the day do you think is the optimal time to take it? I have been trying different options such as first thing when waking with a glass of water or before dinner or after dinner. Just want to see what timing has worked best for you.

Psyllium seed works very well, I consider it my wonder drug. But it tastes like dirt and I can't stand eating it. So I would mix it in my oatmeal in the morning in an attempt to dilute the taste but that backfired because it still was so awful that it encouraged me to often avoid breakfast.

So I only take pseed when needed to firm up stools that are gradually becoming loose. I eat oatmeal 5 times a week and when there is only a spoonful left, I add a spoonful of pseed diluted with milk if needed. That way the horrible taste doesn't spoil my entire breakfast and I can take it more often.

I don't like my stools to remain loose for any length of time because for me that can morph first into IBS, and later into a flare with bloody stools. Diet and psyllium seed seem to keep me in remission.
