which is about 4 level tablespoons. It's mostly people who are constipation-prone who need this higher end of the dose. I'm also redesigning the Acacia labels to make this clearer. Right now, the dosage is based on scant tablespoons, which are harder to measure. The new label design will have dosages based on level tablespoons. One level tablespoon has 7.5 grams of soluble fiber.

Just make sure you increase your dose gradually.
