Organic Psyllium Husk

Organic psyllium husk is a soluble dietary fiber that comes from the organically grown seed of the plant Plantago ovata, commonly known as “grit.” 

It’s not only a great source of fiber, but it also contains plenty of vitamins and minerals that has been used to treat constipation and other digestive problems.

What are the features of organic psyllium husk?

Organic psyllium husk is made from whole seeds that have been dehulled (the outer layers removed). 

It means you can feel good about eating it—it won’t have pesticides! 

It’s also gluten-free, making it an ideal product for anyone with celiac disease or gluten intolerance. 

The seeds are ground into husks and mixed with water before being added to food products for improved digestion and nutrition absorption.
