Pages: 1 Metamucil       #329118 - 04/30/08 04:56 AM Edit Reply Quote EDK Reged: 05/04/04 Posts: 19 Would it be necessary to vary daily dosage of Metamucil or similar products according to whether B/M is C or D. Usually I take 1 tbsp before main meal whether it's lunch or dinner.

He suggests the sugar free but I won't use anything with artificial sweeteners so I tried the reg flavored. It made my C worse. I guess if you have D a Tblsp would be ok. With C I think I'm better off to try to get my fiber in foods. Good luck!
