Sometimes you can head this off with tactics the night before. Make sure your dinner is low fat, high soluble fiber, and not too late at night. But have a little soluble fiber snack later in the evening, and a few glasses of peppermint or fennel tea. Then take your soluble fiber supplement about 30-60 mins. before you go to bed. Make sure you're not taking a vitamin or other supplement at night that could be causing morning problems.

And, if you can get extra sleep by going to bed earlier, that will make mornings easier too. I'd also try having a hot cup of peppermint tea and more soluble fiber as soon as you get.

Best,
Heather
