does isabgol cause gas - #38546
I am dealing with some digestive issues lately. I've been trying to incorporate more fiber into my diet, and someone suggested I take isabgol because I heard it’s great for that. But now I'm a bit confused. I started taking it a week ago, you know, mixing it with water like they say, and I feel like I'm getting bloated and gassy!! Ugh, it’s so frustrating! I've never really had issues with gas before, but ever since I started with isabgol, it's like a whole new experience. I want to know, does isabgol cause gas? Or is this just my body trying to adjust to the extra fiber? I read somewhere that it can be helpful for constipation, and I'm definitely in favor of that, but this gas situation is kinda ruining it for me. Also, I’m not sure I’m taking the right amount. I just did a quick search, and some say a teaspoon, while others say a tablespoon? I really don’t wanna feel bloated all the time. If isabgol does cause gas, is there a way to take it that minimizes this? Should I be mixing it with something else, or tapering it slowly? Any advice would be great!!! I just want my tummy to feel better without all this extra gas!
