How do I use organic Psyllium husk?

Take 1 teaspoon (approx. 3 g), disperse well in a glass of water or other beverage and drink immediately. Then drink a large glass of water.

Depending on your needs, you can gradually increase the dose up to 6 g a day (around 2 tablespoons), to be taken in 2 or 3 doses with plenty of water.

Why take Blond Psyllium?

• Very rich in fibre, Psyllium husks are a natural solution for improving intestinal transit and promoting digestive health.

• Psyllium husks help maintain good intestinal health and promote bowel movements. They are rich in mucilage, hydrophilic substances that swell on contact with water to form a viscous gel. This creates a gentle mechanical ballasting action that helps to regulate transit, whether too slow or too fast. It is necessary to mix the powder with a glass of water so that the psyllium mucilage can swell properly and create the gel, which will then have a beneficial effect on intestinal function.

• Psyllium benefits sluggish bowels by supporting intestinal function and improving digestion.

• We have selected 99% ORGANIC blond Psyllium husk, the highest purity grade.

• Rigorously controlled and analysed with each batch: microbiology, heavy metals, pesticides, absence of EtO, etc.

The mucilage in psyllium husks has the rare and surprising ability to swell when in contact with water. This characteristic is also found in Chia seeds, which are also renowned for their intestinal benefits. These mucilages form a sort of gel with a viscous consistency, whose mechanical action is beneficial in the event of transit that is too slow, but also in the event of transit that is too rapid.
