I started out on a SFS similar to psyllium and it gave me horrible side effects for about 10 days and then I just had the extra bloating and gas that the harsh SFS caused on it's own. So if you want to stick it out, it'll be about 2 weeks in my experience.

And you'll need to then increase your dose. 12-15g a day of SF from SFS is a good amount to try, but Heather recommends up to 30g a day for C's if you need it.

Acacia is great if you hate the taste/texture of some SFSs as it's pretty much tasteless and dissolves in anything so you can take it in food. I have mine in oatmeal in the morning and then soy milk at night and I can't tell it's there.
