Psyllium Husk

PSYLLIUM HUSK

PSYLLIUM is a form of fiber made from the husks of the Plantago ovata plant’s seeds. It sometimes goes by the name ispaghul (ইসুবগুল). Whole psyllium husks contain 90 grams of fiber in every 100 grams, making it an easy way to increase fiber rapidly.

Maintaining a healthy weight is a concern for many people, especially those with a chronic condition like diabetes. Besides being good for your heart and blood sugar levels, psyllium may help you lose weight.

Because psyllium absorbs liquid in your body, it can help give you a feeling of being full. This can help you control the amount of food you eat.

Benefits of psyllium husks

Looks after the gut 

The high fiber content in psyllium husks is incredible for nurturing your bowel health. It bulks up stools by increasing the size and weight, binds waste together and creates slip in the intensities. All of these things help to pass stools more easily, reducing bloating, cramps, constipation, and diarrhea.

Helps lower cholesterol

Cholesterol is a fatty substance that constructs cell membranes, produces hormones, and aids vitamin D synthesis. However, too much cholesterol can gather on cell walls, making them stiffen and harden, which inflames and narrows arteries.

The high amount of fiber in psyllium husks helps decrease the build-up of cholesterol, keeping it at a healthy level.

May regulate blood sugar levels

You need sugar for energy. However, when glucose levels rise, it can cause an energy crash, and you may feel lethargic, sluggish, and moody.

Certain foods create more dramatic spikes in sugar levels than others. For example, carbohydrates, fast food, chocolate, and sweets. The fiber in psyllium husks doesn’t cause a glucose spike, helping to balance blood sugar.

Easy ways to eat psyllium husks

• Super boost your smoothies: Psyllium husks give smoothies texture and added fiber. Whether it’s a banana and blueberry or raspberry and oats smoothie, psyllium husks will level up the nutrition.
• Stir into your breakfast cereal: Sometimes, trying to get additional ingredients, like psyllium husks, into your diet is hard. One of the easiest ways is to add them to something you already eat, like a breakfast cereal. Pour your bowl of cereal like usual, then stir in a healthy helping of psyllium husks – simple!
• Sprinkle over oatmeal: The light, mildly nutty taste of oats blends wonderfully with psyllium husks. Make porridge oats and gently mix in some psyllium husks, or sprinkle the husks over the top of your oatmeal for crunch and fiber.
