i usually do it on an empty stomach, just because of the timing at which i take my pills and because i cant take them near when i take my colonix cleansing program... so i cant take them in the morning so i take them with a protein shake (within half an hour). lunchtime is too early for the next batch of pills so i take them about two hours after i eat, usually. then dinnertime is again too early and i dont like to eat right before bed, which is when i take my last dose.
so by default, i take them without food, though im usually not super hungry... because then i feel queasy.
hugs and good boobie wishes to all!

The argument to take them on empty stomach is that the herbs don't have to compeate with food and so may get better absorption. The argument to take them, with a meal is that pills on empty stomach may upset your stomach. I usually take them on empty stomach due to timing as well, but I'm not sure if I believe that about better absorption.

I take them at mealtimes because I always remember that way. I can never remember other times. The half an hour before you eat idea doesn't work for me as I don't always know when I'm going to eat. The half an hour afterwards doesn't work either becasue I've forgotten by then.

I don't care whether my stomache's empty or not. I take them when it's time to take them. When I wake up, then at 4pm, and then when I go to bed. I try to spread them about 8 hours apart.
