Why use Psyllium Husks?
Relieve ConstipationDue to its high fibre content, psyllium husks are an effective remedy for constipation. When taken with lots of water, the husks swell and increase the peristalsis action of the intestines, which consequently promotes the flow of bowel matter. To this extent, psyllium husks are seen as ‘nature’s laxative’.
Contribute to Weight LossAs per the above, when taken with plenty of water, psyllium husks swell in size. This causes a feeling of fullness and thus serves to reduce appetite in the user.
Psyllium husks have also been shown to promote a number of other benefits, which include; maintaining stable blood sugar levels, lowering cholesterol levels, bowel and colon cleansing and improving the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
