Traditional Uses:

Psyllium seed husks are digestible in humans and are often used as a source of dietary fibre. They are used to relieve constipation, irritable bowel syndrome, diverticular disease, and diarrhea. They are also used as a regular dietary supplement to improve and maintain regular GI transit. The inert bulk of the husks helps provide a constant volume of solid material irrespective of other aspects of the diet or any disease condition of the gut. Some recent research is also showing them to be promising in lowering cholesterol and controlling diabetes.

Directions to use:

A typical dose is 1 – 3 teaspoons per glass of water. Take this product with a full glass of water or other fluid. Can take this dose up to three times a day although once might be enough for constipation.

Safety precautions:

Safe to use if pregnant or lactating as a fibre supplement. Consult with a medical practitioner before use.
