Purpose/Usage
Because Psyllium is a rich source of soluble fibre, it is suited to such conditions as colitis and diverticulitis, and is an excellent colon cleanser as it creates bulk in the system. It may, thus, help with constipation, when taken with adequate quantities of water.
As a soluble fibre, Psyllium also has a role in the maintenance of healthy blood vessels, as it helps maintain healthy cholesterol levels. Used in conjunction with good dietary habits it may aid in the prevention of elevated blood cholesterol levels.
Psyllium is an excellent source of soluble fibre that can have a lubricating effect on the intestinal tract. Psyllium, taken daily, can aid in the maintenance of a healthy digestive tract and also works as an effective colon cleanser. When used on an ongoing basis, Psyllium can enhance the healthy functioning of the entire digestive tract.
Psyllium coats and soothes the mucous membranes of the digestive tract. Psyllium is, therefore, beneficial to all inflammatory disorders of the digestive system. It is recommended for such conditions as ulcers, diarrhoea, and constipation. Psyllium encourages natural muscular action in the bowel, regulating peristalsis.
Medicines have benefits and some may have risks. Always read the label
carefully and use strictly as directed. If symptoms continue or you have
side effects consult your pharmacist or doctor immediately.
