@nimalw I do the same for fasting, although since I take mine first thing in the morning I'm not concerned about before. I'm surprised that it's only an hour before though because if you eat it takes more than an hour for the food to leave your stomach. I've seen as long as four hours before taking a medication but I think two hours is generally the guideline.

It really does make a difference as proved by when I made the change. A lot of people are unaware of that and they feel that they get the same results no matter how they take it but I think it may simply be that without even thinking about it, on the day of testing, or on the day before, they generally do the same thing as usual so that's why it's consistent. Of course some people may just absorb their medications differently I suppose too.
