Psyllium Seed (Outer Husk
and Seed Contents) 500mg
The major component of
Psyllium seed (Plantago Psyllium) is mucilage, which consists of both soluble
and insoluble fibre. Mucilage is found in both the outer husks and the inner
seed. It is made up of indigestible fiber which absorbs water and swells
several times its original size. If taken with lots of water, it acts like a
bulk laxative absorbing water and stretching the large intestine and decreasing
the length of time that stool stays in the intestine. In cases of diarrhea,
psyllium’s mucilage absorbs the excess liquid and slow down the movement and
delays the emptying of the contents from the gastrointestinal tract.The
mucilage in psyllium also absorbs toxins from external sources (e.g.
carcinogens) and internal sources (produced by intestinal bacteria and
parasites).
Psyllium Seed is manufactured under strict GMP
standards. It does not contain artificial colors, flavours, sweeteners,
preservatives, chemical additives, wheat, yeast or animal derivatives. The
cellulase is derived from plant sources.
Suggested dose for adults: 3-6 capsules per day with
juice or water or as directed by your health care practitioner.
Indications: Psyllium
can be used to reduce cholesterol absorption, lessen the frequency of
hemorrhoids and hiatal hernias, reduce constipation and reduce intestinal
disease.
Caution: Plenty of water should be
consumed because if it is not provided, it will be drawn out of the body. If a
person is already constipated, taking psyllium without plenty of water could
worsen the condition.
