I take my first dose of acacia in the morning, first thing, with a cup of fennel tea. No problem. I take my first peppermint capsule before lunch - typically ~30 minutes before. Then, I need to take both a peppermint capsule and acacia (again, with fennel tea) before dinner. Now, how do I time this? The peppermint is supposed to be taken on an empty stomach one hour before eating. So do I drink my pre-dinner tea/acacia before or after the peppermint capsule, and how much time needs to be between each? And what's the minimum amount of time I can allow between each of those and dinner? I guess I would also like some general clarification as to how much time needs to pass between eating/drinking and taking a peppermint capsule, in order for it to be most effective.

Thanks!
