Those with D, how much Acacia do you take?

I currently am taking 1 tablespoon in the morning and 1 in the pm. This past week I've had 2 attacks in the late afternoon and I'm not sure why, so I'm considering taking another tablespoon before lunch. Just wondering what works for everyone else

I started at 1/2 tsp. twice a day and built up to 1 tsp. twice a day. If I use more then I get attacks.

I take 2 tbsp, spread throughout the day. I am currently trying to decrease it by 1 tsp because I think the acacia might be contributing to my gas, since that has been my biggest issue lately. HTH.

I take 2 tsp in the morning and 1 tbs in the evening. I take less in the morning because it seems to give me bad gas during the day. I still get attacks but they are less frequent, and I'm much more "normal" in between.

Taking 12g of Acacia per day. Relatively stable since March 2008!
