Psyllium Husk 500g

Psyllium husks are the outer coating, or husk, of the seeds from the Plantago ovata plant, native to regions of India and Iran. They are rich in soluble fibre and are commonly used as a natural fibre supplement. When mixed with water, psyllium husks form a gel-like substance that helps improve digestion, promote regular bowel movements, and manage cholesterol levels.

Psyllium husks are widely used to:

• Support Digestive Health: They act as a bulk-forming laxative, helping to relieve constipation and regulate bowel movements.
• Promote Heart Health: The soluble fibre in psyllium can help lower cholesterol levels, reducing the risk of heart disease.
• Manage Blood Sugar Levels: By slowing the absorption of sugar, psyllium may help regulate blood sugar levels, making it beneficial for individuals with diabetes.
• Support Weight Management: Psyllium husks promote a feeling of fullness, which can help with appetite control and weight management.

They are typically added to water, smoothies, cereals, or baked goods for an easy way to increase fibre intake and improve digestive and overall health.
