Miralax really isn't a fiber at all. It is an osmotic laxative, it works by pulling water into the colon. I would still recommend taking a fiber supplement in addition to it. I will mix one spoon of Acacia and one cap of Miralax in an 8oz glass. I fill it about 1/3 full of water and stir, than fill with Juice. I usually use a Tropicana Twister flavor. I only mix it with water first to cut the juice, its not really necessary. I don't drink coffee at all, never have but as far as I know its ok to mix with hot beverages as well! Remember, you can adjust your dose as needed when necessary. I'm usually good with one cap a day, sometimes I even get away with 1/2 cap a day. However, when I travel, I always get backed up so then I usually go to 2 caps a day!

Taking it one day at a time.....
