Increases Fiber Intake

Studies have shown that the fiber content in the American diet is typically about half of the levels recommended by authorities. Psyllium Husks can be a convenient way to increase dietary fiber intake. Psyllium has the ability to swell up to 50 times its original volume when added to liquid. This bulk effect can play an important role in maintaining regularity and gastrointestinal health.

Helps Maintain Regularity

Psyllium Husks function as a natural soluble fiber that can help maintain regularity in bowel function. By increasing the amount of fiber in the diet, one can promote healthy digestion and prevent constipation.

Promotes Gastrointestinal Health

By increasing dietary fiber intake, Psyllium Husks can contribute to promoting healthy gastrointestinal health. Fiber helps keep the intestines healthy by promoting a balanced gut flora and facilitating the passage of stool through the intestines.
