Natural Soluble Fiber for Digestive Wellness
NOW Whole Psyllium Husks 340g is a convenient and natural source of dietary fiber. Derived from the seeds of the Plantago ovata plant, these whole husks are a bulk-forming fiber that helps maintain healthy digestive regularity. Unlike the fine powder version, these whole husks provide a coarser texture that many prefer for specific uses.
Key Health Benefits
- Promotes Digestive Regularity: Psyllium husk is well-known for providing gentle relief from constipation and supporting overall bowel health by adding bulk to the stool.
- Supports Heart Health: Scientific evidence suggests that soluble fiber from psyllium seed husks, as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease.
- Weight Management & Fullness: Taking psyllium before meals can help you feel fuller for longer, which may assist in managing your appetite and supporting weight loss goals.
- Blood Sugar Support: By slowing down the absorption of sugar, it can help maintain more stable blood sugar levels after meals.
Perfect for Keto and Low-Carb Diets
For those in Nigeria following a ketogenic or low-carb lifestyle, NOW Whole Psyllium Husks is an essential pantry staple. It is commonly used as a binding agent to create healthy "swallow" alternatives, such as cauliflower fufu or almond flour swallow, giving them a traditional texture without the high carbs.
Recommended Usage
To use as a fiber supplement, mix 2 level tablespoons into at least 8 ounces (a full glass) of water or juice. Stir and drink immediately, as the mixture will thicken.
Important: Always consume this product with a full glass of liquid. Taking it without enough liquid may cause choking. Do not take if you have difficulty swallowing. If you are taking any medications, consult your doctor or a GoMed pharmacist, as psyllium can affect how some medicines are absorbed.
