Descriptions

Psyllium seed husk are indigestible and are a source of soluble dietary fiber which may be fermented into butyrate, which is a pharmacologically active short-chain fatty acid, by butyrate-producing bacteria.They are used to relieve constipation, irritable bowel syndrome, and diarrhea. They are also used as a regular dietary supplement to improve and maintain regular GI transit. The inert bulk of the husks helps provide a constant volume of solid material irrespective of other aspects of the diet or any disease condition of the gut.
