Psyllium Husk is a good form of dietary fibre. Used as part of a bowel/colon maintenance programme, psyllium husks help to maintain healthy & efficient intestines. Psyllium Husks come from the outside coat of the seeds of the plant Plantago Ovato. The husk provides a good source of fibre, & is good used as part of a cleanse programme. Ensure that you take them with sufficient water (about 4 pints a day) because the muscular movement of the digestive tract turns the powder into a gel. Taking 3 capsules per day will give you a 30 day supply. Nature's Own recommend that you use Aloe Vera juice with the psyllium husks as part of your colon care programme. Nature's Own Psyllium Husks 90 Vegan Capsules are free from gluten, corn, wheat, soya & dairy. They do not contain any GM ingredients. Suitable for vegetarians & vegans.
