Whole Psyllium Husks

Whole Psyllium Husks for colon cleansing.

What are they?

Psyllium is a form of fiber made from the Plantago ovata plant, specifically from the husks of the plant’s seed. It sometimes goes by the name ispaghula. It is a top herb used in weight control and for general intestinal health.

 

How do they work?

• They provide fiber and lubrication for the bowels. When taken inside the body with liquid, they expand into a gelatinous mass, gathering up fecal matter and sweeping the walls of the intestine.
• Whole psyllium husks also counteract diarrhea and regulate the bowels. As you advance on this program, you will have fluffy, well lubricated stools, with no straining.
• For those with diabetes or pre-diabetics, psyllium husks have an additional benefit. They cause the stomach to empty more slowly. Food is therefore absorbed from the intestines more gradually, avoiding a sudden release of sugar.
