hey there!
so i am doing a cleans and it has me doing two teaspoons of flaxseed husk a day, plus flaxseed oil with every meal. this has been going great! before this cleans i was also taking dr levins ultimate weight loss product which is basically all fiber (its the highest concentration of fiber i could find in a product with no fillers so thats why i am taking it) i have also been taking a fiber gummy. i am still!! not regular (i know, not the best thing to announce to the web) so i was wondering if i am over doing the fiber? irregularity is a symptom of being hypothyroid which i am for life so i am trying to get regular despite the set back.
thanks all!

    Make sure you are drinking TONS of water because the fiber with just cause you to be more constipated without any water to help flush it...hope this helps...
