Can I take activated charcoal with my medication?
Not at the same time. Charcoal binds indiscriminately and can reduce how much medication you absorb, including the contraceptive pill. Ask your pharmacist.
How much water does psyllium need?
A great deal – a full glass at minimum. It absorbs water, and taken with too little it is uncomfortable.
What is the difference between these products?
Body Biotics is a live culture, psyllium is a fibre, and charcoal is a binder. They do genuinely different things.
Should I start on the full amount?
No. Build up over a couple of weeks, particularly with the fibre.
