Psyllium husk is a natural soluble fiber that is derived from the seeds of the Plantago ovata plant. It has been used for centuries in traditional medicines and is now widely used as a dietary supplement. Psyllium husk is known for its ability to absorb water and form a gel-like substance in the digestive tract, which can help to promote regularity and relieve constipation. Additionally, psyllium husk may help to lower cholesterol levels, reduce blood sugar levels, and aid in weight loss. It can also be used as a thickening agent in cooking and baking, and it can be added to smoothies or other beverages for a fiber boost.
