Hi Cara,
Go up top to the little red pushpin where Heather has posted "Acacia Dosages." It'll explain how much to start taking at first.
Basically, you want to start SLOWLY and work your way up to about 12-15g./day. When you switch to a different fiber supplement, you want to continue taking the same amount that you have been for awhile and see how you do with the different kind.
Why do you want to mix them? It's okay; I know Mags used to take Acacia in the morning and Citrucel at night (or vice-versa), so it apparently works okay, but I'm just curious as to why you'd want to.
The Acacia is great stuff because it doesn't get thick when you mix it and it has no taste. Personally, I love it.
Yeah, I'd just continue with what you've been taking except substitute the Acacia for ONE of the dosages, and make sure it's the same amount; then see how you do with it, see if it makes any difference. If you don't notice any difference, then you can substitute it for the other dosage, and again see how you do.
I think you'll find you like the Acacia much better than the Benefiber, and you'll end up taking it exclusively.
Let us know how it works for you, okay?
Bev
