Psyllium husk powder is a food supplement made from the seeds or husk of the Plantago ovata, also known as the “glucomannan” or “glaucoma.”
Psyllium husk powder is made using two methods. The first one is using whole seeds. The seeds are dried and ground into a powder. The latter uses only processed powders from ground-up husks (not seeds).
Psyllium husk powder is available in different forms, such as tablets and capsules.
A 1-tablespoon serving of psyllium powder provides 30 calories and 7 grams of fiber.
When you eat psyllium husk powder, it absorbs water in the intestines and keeps things moving.
It helps prevent constipation or stomach pain caused by gas buildup.
It also helps with regularity because it absorbs excess water from the body, so you’re less likely to feel bloated or have diarrhea.
