I am Having some difficulty implementing tummy Tamers effectively. My understanding of the EFI is to always keep soluble fiber in your system. At what point is your stomach then empty to take tummy Tamers? I have had a couple of times that I burb or taste the peppermint after taking the capsules so I doubt it is reaching my lower intestine. Thanks in advance for any insight or ideas.

Hi - the big rule is to take them on an empty stomach, which means at least two hours after you've eaten. First thing in the morning also works, or last thing at night long after dinner.

If you're prone to heartburn, take on an empty stomach and wait an hour before you eat/drink anything else.

If you're not prone to heartburn, take on an empty stomach and wait at least 15-20 minutes before you eat/drink anything else.

Please keep me posted!

Best,
Heather
