Ingredients explained
Psyllium husk (seed husk)
Psyllium’s soluble fiber forms a viscous gel in the gut that slows digestion, supports regularity, and helps trap bile acids for elimination.
Caution: Always take with plenty of water to reduce choking risk, and increase gradually to minimize gas or bloating.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: Take with at least a full glass of liquid. Insufficient liquid may cause choking. Do not use if you have difficulty swallowing.
Who should be cautious: People with esophageal or gastrointestinal narrowing, a history of bowel obstruction, or those on medications that may be affected by fiber absorption may need extra caution. Increase fiber gradually to reduce gas and bloating. Separate medications from high-fiber products by a few hours to avoid reduced absorption. Those with sesame allergy should note it may contain traces of sesame.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place after opening.
