Benefits:
- Supports the intestinal system.
- Is an excellent source of soluble fiber.
- Helps maintain cholesterol levels already in the normal range.
How It Works:
Psyllium seeds are small and dull-colored, covered with a thin, white hull. They contain 10–30% mucilage. When placed in water, their outer walls swell to form a layer of mucilage around the seed. This mucilage may serve as a lubricant and help to cleanse the areas through which it passes. As an all-natural vegetable substance, psyllium’s purely mechanical action to promote colon health and provide pure bulk fiber in the diet is exceptional. Nature’s Sunshine offers the seeds in encapsulated form.
Ingredients:
Psyllium seeds.
Recommended Use:
Take 2 capsules with at least 8 oz. water with a meal twice daily.
NOTE: May cause allergic reaction in persons sensitive to inhaled or ingested psyllium.
