my SFS "strategy rules"

1. ALWAYS first thing in the morning and right before bed (mornings are the absolute worst for me, with D)

2. Before any full meal (lunch and dinner), and always before any "iffy" meal (i.e. at a restaurant or someone else's house)

For me, taking Acacia this usually translates to 1 tbsp in the morning, 1 tbsp before bed, 1.5tsp before lunch and 1.5tsp before dinner. (For the lunch and dinner doses - it's not so much that it needs to be taken with a meal, I just find that the meal is just much easier to handle with the extra SF base of an SFS.)

If I'm eating at a restaurant or someone else's house though, or if it's a particularly large or otherwise iffy meal (like a holiday or something), I usually bump that up to 1 full tbsp before that meal.

Sometimes I just drink that last tbsp (3 tsp) in big water bottles throughout the day if I'm in more "grazing" mode and don't have to worry about dealing with a large-ish meal. (So 1 tbsp morning, 1 tbsp night, and 1 tbsp in small amounts throughout the day.)

That's what works for me anyway. HTH!
