Hi Tia,

I take Algin with my meals sometimes and I also take it at night right before bed (typically on an empty stomach). The only thing you don't want to do is take it with other supplements or medications. Algin is absorbtive, so it could decrease the effectiveness of other supplements or medications.

So, if you happen to eat something, say a mid-day snack and you're not taking any supplements or meds, then pop a few Algin. I sometimes have to work them in here or there.

Hope this helps,
