You can have either problem....Opti-trots or Opti-clog.......Both are cured by taking 2-3 Metamucil CAPSULES with EACH opitfast shake.  I had Opti-trots and had to be taken off one of my high blood pressure medications as it exacerbated the problem.  I was taking 5 Metamucil capsules with each shake and drinking approx 3 litres of fluids on top of the shakes.

 

Good luck, and remember your experience will be unique to you, even if their similarities with others.
