Very effective fiber that hydrates stool and naturally regulates intestinal transit.
Psyllium is a soluble fiber extracted from the seeds of the Plantago ovata plant, renowned for its properties in regulating intestinal transit. It absorbs a large amount of water and forms a viscoplastic gel.
Psyllium is composed mainly of mucilage, a substance that transforms into gel upon contact with water in the digestive system. This mass increases stool volume, hydrates it, and gently stimulates intestinal contractions. It is effective for both constipation (by increasing hydration) and diarrhea (by absorbing excess water). It's a well-tolerated fiber that acts gradually without creating dependence, unlike chemical laxatives.
Regulate intestinal transit and promote gentle elimination of digestive waste.
Start with 1 teaspoon per day and gradually increase to 1-2 tablespoons. Drink enough water (at least 2 liters per day) because psyllium needs a lot of liquid to work effectively. Space medication intake by at least 2 hours.
Psyllium is the natural and gentle partner for regular and problem-free digestion.
