Thanks for your answer, Kandee. So, you drink it in 12 oz of water then just go to bed without drinking additional liquid to the 12 oz you took the konsyl in?

I want to try it your way to prevent bloat all day. I want to see if it works for my body to take it and night and see if I can "sleep through" the bloat stage. But I was worried because, as you know, the recommendation is to drink more water afterwards to flush it through the system. So I was a little confused if I could take it with liquid it was mixed in period , and not have to take additonal water after. I wasn't sure if I could just take it in water, then go to bed immediately after.

No, I would not start at 3 whole tablespoons. I thought maybe one whole Tablespoon would be safe. I guess I won't know until I try though. But I don't want this stuff gelling up in my colon and just sitting there. I know that causes problems too. It is a sure way for the psyllium, which is taken to help constipation, turn into the cause of the constipation.

So, did I get this correct yet? You just take it in 12 oz of water, that's it, then go to bed. No additional liquid because you've been drinking all day?

And no, I don't think you are unusual to drink all day and not with meals. On the contrary, I think that is what most of us do, and what is in fact, recommended.

Thanks for sharing your opinion. And yes, I understand it is just your personal opinion and not one that is the "golden rule" for all Cers! I won't hold you personally liable for how my body reacts!
