Psyllium comes from the Indian plant plantago indica. It is famous for its powerful action in protecting the gastrointestinal system. It is the food that, according to legend, the "Sleeping Beauty" ate when she woke up after 100 years of sleep. It is a mild laxative without affecting the intestinal mucus. It cleanses the intestine and helps in the normal function of defecation. It is widely used in many cases such as irritable bowel syndrome, constipation, hypercholesterolemia, obesity. Psyllium retains water at a rate of 1/6 of its weight. It also keeps the contents of the intestine soft, which results in rapid and painless defecation. It regulates the amount of sugar in the blood, because it slows down the absorption of carbohydrates, resulting in the proper functioning of the body. It increases the feeling of fullness and reduces appetite, which is why it is particularly effective in weight loss. It can be used by people with chronic spastic colitis.
How to use: Add 1 to 2 tsp to plenty of water or juice up to 3 times a day, when the problem is severe. When the problem is mild, add 2 tsp at night also to plenty of water or juice. Over time, gradually reduce the amount.
