whats the max amount of fiber you take in a serving

[speed]

i usualy did 3x a day of a tbs, but started doin 2 serving at once in morning, but do ya think that might be too much at one time

I'd almost go as far as to say that there is no such thing as too much fiber! Its more about the total amount of fiber you take a day than how much at one time. You should have a good amount of fiber, at least 5-10grams(soluble and/or insoluble) with every meal you eat!

yep more the better helps absorb cholesterol too, just make sure you drink enough water to not plug up.
i usually go for 2 table spoons a meal of ground flax seed

Let's not forget fiber actually impairs absorption of other nutrients, including protein. Somewhere in the realm of 5% of protein isnt absorbed when taken with a high fiber meal. I think that the benefits of fiber outweigh the minor absorption impairments.

Personally I like those Fiber One bars, and eat one with each shake I drink. I also get in at least a gallon of water/day as well, and I take digestive enzymes-Acidophilus-....doing these things keeps everything flowing nicely for me at least.
