    Oh no - knocks you out of ketosis? I'll have to stop taking them - I have enough problems getting any kind of result on this diet without making it even harder for myself. Damn.

    I have been taking PH for about the last 6 weeks,and it hasn't knocked me out of ketosis. I think it depends on which one you take and also on your body's reaction. You might just want to carry on with it until your next meeting where you find out if it affects your ketosis. At the time I started taking it I agreed with my LLC that I would try it for a week (as my need was really pressing if you know what I mean) and if it interferes with my ketosis I would stop again. Thankfully I was fine with it. BTW I use the Solgar PH in lose form and put a tablespoon into one of my shakes(normally for breakfast and drink lots of water with it.) Really tastes quite nice actually

    Don't panic, Captain Mannering!! I have taken them consistently and STAYED in ketosis; it's not a guarantee that they (psyllium husks) will knock you out of the magical state.

    I just wanted to flag up the fact that, for some with ultra, ultra delicate body chemistries, they may have to be avoided.

    How have you got on with finding a new LLC???

    Big kiss.

    Hi Mrs L

    Think I will have to stick with my current LLC (although if she tells me the reason I have not lost weight is due to negative thinking again I may have to kill her) until after 100 days. But assuming that I carry on to Development (depends on whether LL have played their part of the bargain and given me a minimum of 3st weight loss) I will definitely change then. Cerulean's LLC is a distinct possibility.

    love

    If any PH were to affect ketosis it would be the capsules and only because of the coating ... and you'd have to be ultra, ultra sensitive to carbs for them to do that.

    PH are just that ... husks. The outer coating of the psyllium plant: they are indigestible so shouldn't have any negative effect ketosis.

    The only other way PH could affect ketosis is if you buy powder that has digestive aids added ... make sure you only have PURE psyllium husks.
