I've thought about increasing the Metamucil to 2 teaspoons with 16 ozs of water 3 times a day...would that do more harm then good?

Also...while I am thinking of it....with the increased of fiber getting into my system would that mean that the THC metabolites would start to be directed to the bowels instead of the bladder? If not, would the amount of metabolites levels at least be decreased going to the bladder?

Thanks again in advance.
I'm more familiar with the caps than the powder so I googled it and if I am looking at the right nutritional guide it is one rounded tablespoon provides 3 grams of fiber 2 grams of which are soluble. This is the same a 6 capsules. For someone who is trying to get clean I usually recommend 3-4 of these servings per day. Would more help, at some point you are going to get diminising returns so I would say 6 servings a day or 3 double servings a day would be about the max I would recommend.

Next, have you ever read my explanations of how soluble fiber works. It's on both forums you post your questions on so if you haven't I will say I am a little disappointed. Here is a basic explanation again. It helps to prevent reabsorbtion which results in getting rid of it from the body a little more quickly overall and the fiber binds to bile acids, causing the body to have to pull cholesterol from the blood to make more bile and (the cholesterol)can take some of the THC metabolites with it. In your last paragraph you pretty much asked the same question twice (that may not have been your intent) but the answers to any questions along that line is fiber can help eliminate THC metabolites overall as well as those that are available in the blood for the kidneys to eliminate thus ending up in the bladder. How much it helps I don't have a percentage or number but it seems in your case you it is going to help you more than most. If you want a more thorough explanation then search for my other posts on it. Try the term fiber or bile.
FakeBoobsRule Reviewed by FakeBoobsRule on . Question About Increased Fiber.... For the past couple of months I have been trying to monitor my diet so that I can get the most fiber. Unless I was gorging myself with high fiber foods I couldn't seem to get the recommended 30mgs in a day. I decided to start adding Metamucil to my daily intake 3 times a day as of yesterday. The next part may seem slightly "gross" but for all fighting the war on the bladder cops has probably experienced what I have questions about. First....since I started taking the Metamucil it seems as Rating: 5
