    I take 1 tbsp chia seeds by mouth with water as if they were pills... doesn't affect any foods, doesn't taste bad, and works like a charm! They have omega's, protein, very little carbs, and tons of fiber.

    i don't like psyllium's texture either. Instead, colon cleanse has psyllium in capsules, too. They're not cheap... but I found some similar pills cheaper (at the 99c only store, 25 pills per container. that's less than half of name brand cost)

    I started taking 3 pills once a day, then twice a day, then all 6 at once (but never more than 6 in a day)

    also, google a recipe for Minute Muffin with ground flax seeds. plenty of fiber and tastes good, too.

    If you're going to take it, mix it with water and drink right away!! There are other ways to get fiber though, which are better than psyllium!

    Im almost always close to double or more of my fiber intake need, feel free to add me and check out my diary if you want :)
