psyllium husk powder"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"HwtZe\" lang=\"et\"><span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Organic psyllium husk powder is obtained from the seeds of Plantago ovata, a plant that grows in Western Asia and the Mediterranean.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">This plant has been cultivated for centuries for medicinal and dietary purposes.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">The name &#8216;psyllium&#8217; is derived from the Greek word &#8216;psulla&#8217;, meaning &#8216;flea&#8217;, which refers to the plant&#8217;s small flea-like seeds.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Psyllium has been used since ancient times for its health benefits.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">It has digestive properties and its seeds and husks were often used to alleviate various digestive problems.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Over time, it has become popular in different parts of the world as studies have shown that it can support digestion, manage cholesterol and regulate blood sugar.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"HwtZe\" lang=\"et\"><span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Psyllium is popular today in many forms, including whole seeds, seed shells and powders.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">They have been recognised for their role in promoting regular digestion, heart health and blood sugar control.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Psyllium husk powder is an excellent source of fibre.<\/span><\/span>  S<span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">ee absorbs water well and forms a gel-like substance in the digestive tract that helps with regular bowel movements.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">It can be particularly useful for those who experience constipation.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">The fibre in seed pods promotes a feeling of fullness, which can help reduce appetite and calorie intake.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Some studies suggest that regular consumption of psyllium husk seed powder may help to lower LDL (bad) cholesterol levels, which may reduce the risk of heart disease.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Fibre can also slow down the absorption of sugar and help stabilise blood sugar.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">It can be useful for people with diabetes or at risk of developing the disease.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Psyllium husk powder can be used as a probiotic to promote the growth of beneficial gut bacteria.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">A healthy gut microbiome is linked to many aspects of overall health, including immune function and mental well-being.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"HwtZe\" lang=\"et\"><span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Attention!<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Psyllium husk powder can cause gas, bloating or abdominal cramps in some people, especially if taken in large amounts or without adequate water.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">In rare cases, however, people may be allergic to these seed pods and may experience symptoms such as itching, hives or difficulty breathing.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Psyllium powder can interfere with the absorption of certain medicines, so it is very important to take it separately from prescription medicines.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">This product is intended for adults.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"HwtZe\" lang=\"et\"><span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Usage:<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">To relieve constipation, take psyllium husk powder with plenty of water as its fibres absorb moisture to soften stools.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">It is recommended to take about 5 g three times a day with a glass of water.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Psyllium husk powder may help with diarrhoea if taken with less water.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">3-4 g three times a day is recommended.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">Psyllium husk powder is commonly used to add fibre to food.<\/span><\/span> This<span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">  can be mixed with water or added to smoothies, yoghurt, porridge or muesli.<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><span class=\"ryNqvb\">The recommended daily allowance is 5-10 g or 1 tablespoon.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"HwtZe\" lang=\"et\"><span class=\"jCAhz ChMk0b\"><br \/>\n  <span class=\"ryNqvb\">Sources:<\/span><br \/>\n<\/span> <span
