heaped teaspoon for breakfast and then dribs and drabs with coffee/tea throughout the day. I have more if I eat sugary stuff to counteract this.

You can go on the Clinicrowd site, register and you'll get the instructions. Also you can do a search on healthunlocked on Mannitol there are a lot of posts on it.

I give my Mom and I one Tablespoon twice a day. Mannitol Balance on Facebook can answer any questions you may have. They are very helpful.

We have tried taking mannitol in our tea... just a half tablespoon twice a day gives so much gas and bloating. Do you get this?

in reply totbirchf

Yes, it does give you gas but it is worth it right now as it’s helping her. I have been meaning to look into something natural we can take for the gas.

I read that ginger helps with gas and digestion. Ginger tea should be easy to make although I tried yesterday and it had no ginger flavour at all!

in reply toAstra7

I put fresh ginger in our food but may not be using enough.

Thanks for the reply. I wouldn't mind the gas except for in exercise class when I am afraid I will have an embarrassing moment! I take ground ginger capsule every day, doesn't seem to help, but I have read the right kind of probiotics can help. Haven't tried that yet, will look into it.

We drink Yakult but it hasn’t helped the gas.

It's weird how the mannitol makes my tummy rumble and grumble...not painful or uncomfortable, just noise that I have not heard before.
