What is Psyllium Husk?

Psyllium Husk is a soluble dietary fibre. It's a natural fibre source, useful for helping maintain healthy digestion, or for a cleanse. Surveys have shown that the fibre content of the American diet is typically about half of the recommended levels.

Psyllium husks and apple pectin can be a convenient way to increase the intake of dietary fibre. Psyllium has the ability to swell up to 50 times its initial volume when added to liquid. This bulking action can play an important role in maintaining regularity and gastrointestinal health.

Support:

Soluble fibre from foods such as psyllium seed husks, as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may help reduce the risk of heart disease, help support blood sugar levels, cholesterol levels and aid in colon cleansing. Apple Pectin is a watersoluble fibre which has a gel-forming effect when mixed with water. Apple pectin provides nutritional support for healthy digestive function and overall well-being. This natural fibre has numerous health benefits, including the ability to serve as an effective prebiotic.

Apple Pectin may also aid healthy cholesterol levels by binding with the cholesterol in the gut, thereby preventing its absorption into the bloodstream.

Apple Pectin also slows down the activity of enzymes that break down starches and sugar. Thus the absorption of carbohydrates and sugars is slowed down, preventing blood sugar spikes which may lead to weight gain and diabetes.
