Solgar Psyllium Husks are a soluble fibre offering a convenient and easy way to increase the amount of this important food group in our diet to help restore and maintain regularity.
What are the benefits of Psyllium husks fibre?
Psyllium husks fibre, or isphagula, are mainly grown in the Middle East and are full of fibre. Fibre is found in soluble and insoluble forms. Insoluble fibre remains unchanged when passing through the intestines, whereas soluble fibres change and form a gel-like substance within the intestines. Once digested it draws water in from the colon and pushes out waste from the colon. With today’s modern lifestyles and diets, it can sometimes be difficult to obtain enough fibre from our food. As well as making sure we eat enough whole grains, fruits and vegetables, Solgar’s Psyllium Husks Fibre can be a great way to top up your levels.
All Solgar products meet our industry recognized “Gold Standard” for excellence. Made using naturally sourced ingredients and innovating since 1947, Solgar is your perfect supplement to good health – 98% of Solgar consumers recommend the brand*

These are amazing for IBS. I was really despairing as had gone backwards in terms of IBS recovery - I ordered these in the hope that they would help,
...they did. I am IBS-C mostly, really recommend. I’d start with one capsule first and gradually go up to 2 - make sure you drink LOTS of water as well. I also found its better to take them in the day, not just before bed.

Excellent project for helping to gently detox the bowel of any toxins and residue from nuts/seeds etc.

I thought I reviewed this already. in fact, the only reason I am doing so now is because I have just sent the link to a friend who's son has issu
...es with his digestion. I've had colitis for 6 years now, and this probably changed my life. I started constantly flaring a couple of years ago and lost over a stone and nothing I was doing was working. The meds stopped working and all the dietary changes I made had little to no effect. I had read a few people saying that fibre had helped them, but I always under the impression that fibre is for people who have constipation, not issues with urgency and frequency that affect those with ibd or severe ibs. Then I watched a programme about the effects of fibre on the digestive system. Fibre it seems normalises the body functions, so it softens hard poo for those with constipation (which a lot of reviewers on here seem to attest to) But in addition, it also adds bulk the stool which slows down the speed which digestion takes place for those with ibd and ibs. For me after a week I noticed a difference and after a month a significant improvement which allowed my medication to resume working, and meant that I went virtually back to normal bowel habits. I also recommended this to another friend that had a different issue, which has meant they have been in and out of hospital and they have gone from a frequency of 8 times a day to 3, which is a lot better for them. I have heard people say Oh this doesn't work for me I've tried aloe vera ect not willing to give this a go. This isn't aloe vera. My body had a bad reaction that too. This is a soluble fibre, which is why it's great even as a supplement for ibs and ibd sufferers as some insoluble fibre can cause issues. Please give it a go for a week. It might just give you your life back.

I won't be too graphic here, as we all know what these things do :)
Suffice to say, they work very well. I've used lots of different bran
...ds over the years, and I have to say, these ones work the best so far. I imagine that has to do with the quality of the ingredients for which you have to pay a little more. But like everything in life, you get what you pay for.

I'll be honest I bought these primarily to regulate my digestive system (aka, have "cleaner" poops). Really does make your bowel moveme
...nts go to how they should be, solid and easy. I have two a day and does me just fine. Highly recommend.
You can probably get fiber from elsewhere like vegetables for cheaper and healthier diet but if your busy student like me and need quick fix this is excellent.
Robert
I'm really not sure what I was thinking when I bought these. I've been taking the recommended two capsules a day and not noticed any differe
...nce in my .... well you know what I'm talking about. Thinking about it logically, two of these provide 1 gram of fibre whereas a small serving of my fruit and bran flakes cereal provides 4 grams. Half a can of beans provides 12 grams. A slice of wholemeal bread .... you can see where I'm going with this. I'll finish the pot I've bought but I won't be buying again.

I was very constipated pooping maybe once a day but that being a small little thing maybe width and length of a pinky, but after taking this for the f
...irst time I felt something in my stomach after few hours, and I when I did go a lot came out but most of them were the same size, which is good anyway because maybe it cleared me of the old stuff that has been there for days haha, I didn't change anything in my diet i'm doing IF and try to do low carbs, I also almost always have constipation when on IF. But anyway, it either worked or it was some kind of a coincidence, not sure, but nothing changed apart from me taking solgar psyllium. 5+

It's a brand of trust and it's a natural product and no side effects THANK YOU. My bowel problem disappeared without resorting to the chemic
Perfect as always from the Solgar brand. Detailed description of the capsules in oz and mg is
a dose of 2 capsules at 500mg, effective depending on t
...he body, 1G per day. More expensive than powder, but much more practical. I am very satisfied especially after wanting to change by an ineffective brand, I find my real blond psyllium well dosed.
