I got the capsules, where there's a powder inside a capsule. I haven't taken them yet.
I've just been reading here to only take the chewable kind, which I haven't found in the stores I've been to.
What is the difference? And, I've also read here to take it before you eat...is that necessary?
Has anyone had any side effects from it?

Ok I found somewhere on here to get chewables only so I did. It says to take 2 a day. But on here someone suggested before eating. And I like licorice somewhat but these taste gross!

Chewable is correct, and try to let them disolve in your mouth/throat about 20 minutes before you eat. I started by taking 4 before each meal and then before bed. 2 a day won't do much for you, you must take them before you eat.

Thanks.
I've just started taking them, only 2 though. And I've been taking a few marshmallow root tabs. How long before they work? I feel exactly the same (like crap).
