Psyllium comes from the Indian plant plantago indica. It is famous for its powerful action in protecting the gastrointestinal system. It is the food that, according to legend, the "Sleeping Beauty" ate when she woke up after 100 years of sleep.

Valuable for Digestive Health

Psyllium is rich in fiber and has the ability to hold water at a rate of 1/6 of its weight. This means that it absorbs water in your intestines and makes bowel movements much easier and can help promote normal bowel function without increasing flatulence. It also keeps the contents of the intestines soft, which results in rapid and painless defecation. It can be used as an emergency treatment to relieve constipation or can be added to your diet to contribute to normal overall digestive health. In addition to keeping your bowel movements regular and managing a chronic condition, psyllium has the ability to soften your stool, provided you drink enough water . This can be helpful with short-term conditions such as constipation and can also prevent complications of constipation, such as hemorrhoids and anal fissures.

Psyllium is a prebiotic

Prebiotics are a substance needed for the growth of healthy colonies of probiotics in the gut. A healthy colony of good bacteria in the digestive system is essential for healthy immune function. Your body is better able to fight infection, reduce inflammation , and maintain healthy tissues and cells.

How to use / dosage

We drink grated psyllium with water or juice. The dosage depends on the size of the problem. The maximum amount is 3 tsp. per day and not more than 5 consecutive days per intragroup. When the condition of the intestine improves, we reduce or stop the dosage amount. While using psyllium it is important to drink enough water.

Special precautions:
The use of psyllium at recommended dosages is generally considered safe.
It is important to drink plenty of water when taking psyllium.
People with chronic constipation should seek specialist advice.
Some people with irritable bowel syndrome may feel worse when taking psyllium.
People with uncontrolled diabetes should talk to their doctor before taking psyllium.

Psyllium, like fiber supplements in general, can make it harder for your body to absorb medications you take by mouth, potentially making them less effective. Take psyllium 2 hours apart from medications.
