Metamucil is a processed form of psyllium husks. If you are using it, make sure you check the ingredients for sweeteners and AS. How much did you take? If you take too much, it can cause bloating. Usually it's recommended to start gradually. When I first started taking a natural psyllium, I started out with 1 tsp (with tons of water) and increased each week until I was taking 1 T.
