About
In comparison with grains, which commonly provide insoluble 'roughage' fibre, psyllium provides 80% soluble and 20% insoluble fiber. After entering your body, it absorbs liquid and expands into a gel-like consistency, essentially brooming your insides.
Uses
The easiest way to cleanse your intestinal system is to add it to smoothies, juices, cereals or baking. When taking this herb, it is very important to drink plenty of water since psyllium absorbs liquid.
