PSYLLIUM HUSK

The husk of Plantago ovata (otherwise called Isphagula husk), is rich in mucilage fibre (Arabinogalacturonosyl-rhamno-xylan) and is commonly used as a bulking laxative. Two forms are offered:
WHOLE HUSK - suitable for general use as a bulking agent, promotes mass peristalsis and maintains soft stools. Must be taken with plenty of water. Suggested dosage: 1 teaspoon - 1 tablespoon daily with water.
POWDER - best for structured fasting, mixing with vegetable and fruit juices and Bentonite clay water (see under sundries). This is milled as a coarse powder so that dispersion is easy.
Suggested dosage: During fasting, up to 1 tsp. five times daily, mixed with juices and clay water.

PSYLLIUM SEED

Having somewhat different properties to the husk, the seed is a slight stimulant laxative, and is very safe to use, even during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Must always be taken with sufficient water. We offer the dark seed which is more active than the light coloured.
Suggested dosage: ½ teaspoon up to twice daily with plenty of water.
