Yeah I break my doses up. Smaller dose 2-3 times ED with 8-10 oz of water. I chug it as quick as possible so it does not gel up. I do not know if this is beneficial but I do not get gas or other probs when I break it up.

Also if you take it 20 minutes before meals it will help you feel fuller faster so you eat less when cutting, and it helps slow absorption of carbs basically lowering the GI rating so you do not get an insulin spike.
