I had trouble swallowing pills for many years. Ask your doctor if your medication is ok to crush into a powder or open if its a capsule, in that case you can sprinkle it into pretty much any food you want to eat. But always ask, because some meds work too fast if you do that. As for knowing if its working, you'll feel better if it is and these things wont bother you as much, that just might take a couple weeks so you have to be patient.

When is best time to take? Only said in morning or night..so it's night now. right before bed and it's in my system the next day?

I've found I can take like six supplements at once, with a mouth full of food. Once your done chewing, just bung the tablets in your mouth and kinda mix them into the chewed food, with your tongue or what not. You don't even know they're there 👍
