Description
NOW Psyllium Husk Powder provides 4.5 g of Psyllium per 1/2 tablespoon. Psyllium is a true dietary fiber, even though it is classified by some as a laxative or mucilaginous fiber, and is a convenient way to increase intake of dietary fiber because of its high mucilage content*. This bulking agent swells considerably when added to liquid, which can help to support healthy gastrointestinal transit time*.
