Product Information
What is Lepicol Whole Psyllium Husks Powder?
Fibre is a key part of our dietary intake to ensure we maintain a healthy bowel. Not eating enough fibre can lead to digestive problems such as constipation and other chronic digestive disorders. Psyllium husk is derived from the seeds of the Plantago ovata plant and is known for its high fiber content. Whole psyllium husks powder is a dietary supplement made from the ground outer covering of the psyllium seeds. It is commonly used to support digestive health and promote regular bowel movements.
Key Benefits:
- Digestive Health: Psyllium husks are rich in soluble and insoluble fiber, which can help promote a healthy digestive system and support regular bowel movements.
- Bowel Regularity: The fiber content in psyllium husks powder can add bulk to the stool and soften it, making it easier to pass, which can help prevent constipation.
- Gut Health: Psyllium husks act as prebiotics, nourishing beneficial gut bacteria and promoting a healthy balance of gut flora.
- Colon Cleansing: The bulk-forming properties of psyllium husks powder can help cleanse the colon and promote the elimination of waste and toxins from the digestive tract.
- Cholesterol Management: Some studies suggest that psyllium husks may help reduce LDL cholesterol levels, potentially benefiting heart health.
- Blood Sugar Regulation: The soluble fiber in psyllium husks may help slow down the absorption of sugar, which can assist in stabilizing blood sugar levels.
How to use:
Take Psyllium husks at least 30 minutes before a meal.
- Adults: Take 1-2 heaped teaspoons mixed with water or juice once or twice daily (5-10g) and consume immediately. This should then be followed by a further glass of water. We recommend starting with a low dose and building up gradually to suit the individual.
- Children: Half the adult dose with parental supervision.Parents should seek the guidance of a medical practitioner before giving Psyllium husks to children under 11 years.
- Pregnancy: Psyllium husks are suitable for use during pregnancy, but we would always suggest consulting your doctor or healthcare practitioner before taking any food supplement.
Please note: Taking Psyllium Husks without water can cause choking. Always aim to consume a 250ml glass of liquid with every heaped teaspoon.
