18 y/o girl. is it okay to take 3-4 psyllium husk tablets daily to stay regular?

Added Fiber: That sure seems like too much. Remember in medicine that more is never better. This saying is repeatedly proven over and over in all kinds of scenarios when it comes to health care. One or two capsules followed by appropriate amounts of water is the recommended dosing.
