Thanks for taking the time to write all this out, Kim. I'm so sorry you are dealing with family health issues. I hope things turn out well for you. I will say a prayer that God gives you the strength to get through all that you are dealing with.

If I may, I have a few additional questions on your "regime".

Is it Tablespoons or Teaspoons of Acacia? I'm assuming teaspoons. I haven't tried acacia fiber yet because I haven't tolerated others so well.

I'm surprised the calcium doesn't constipate you. I checked out the Lifeway too, but it contains fructose or some other type of flavorings that I thought would be too aggravating to the tummy. I couldn't find a "plain" liquid form of Cal/Mag. What store brand cal/mag do you take? I've never seen a chelated combo of cal/mag, just separate chelated forms. Do you get it at a HFS? Or a regular grocery store? And you take it 3 times a day for a total of 750mg calcium and 375mg Mag, right?

Did the digestive enzymes help you when you did take them? I am experimenting with Digest Gold,but don't seem much of a difference.

Finally, promise , you take the Omega 3-6-9 three times a day? Are they in the refrigerated section of a store? I read that they must be refrigerated in order not be rancid.

Do you get all your stuff at a regular grocery store or do you find it at a special store? Or at the website you listed?

I am not good with many IF foods, especially raw or salads. They don't like me very much. So I'm not sure how to get much more into me. But I need, need, need to drink more water. I tend to just sip on tea all day. I wonder if water would be better than tea or if tea counts toward total liquid.

How do you get liquids in when you aren't suppose to drink before or immediately after a meal? How do you take your acacia beforehand then? And aren't you suppose to wait a while after eating to drink?

Anyhow, thanks again. I appreciate all your help and patience!
