Psyllium Husks Whole, 16 Oz (Pack of 2)

Due to some elevated blood work I decided to add some fiber to my diet. Not interested in paying a high price for the popular brand, (over hyped and over priced in my opinion) I was recommended this brand as the most beneficial. I caught a sale in the double pack. I tried it in water first and washed it right down. It’s not bad. A mild nutty flavor. Quite pleasant. I now add it to some flavored drink mix in water (crystal light, cool-ade for a few examples) I let it sit for a minute or two to let it begin to gel. Not too long as to let it get too thick. I drink it right down within 3 minutes time. I like the texture and flavor, even with the flavored drink mix. I started with 1 teaspoon twice a day to eliminate any gastric disturbance. I now take 1 tablespoon twice a day. I have had no issues with gas or gut pain. I have noticed I am very full after my meal. I read some people don’t like the texture. It’s fiber people. It’s supposed to be a bit gritty. But saying that, I find this brand to have no grit with this type of psyllium fiber. It has texture but no grit. Kinda like when you eat tapioca. I personally like the flavor and texture. It’s said you can add it to yogurt or pudding if you have any issues. I like this psyllium fiber and will continue to use it and repurchase this brand as long as it stays reasonably priced.

Excellent product from an reputable company, and the simple clean ingredient list makes it easy to trust. The composition is pure fiber, which provides great benefits for overall gut and intestinal health. it easy to mix into smoothies, yogurt, water or any baking, and using it daily, we've noticed improved digestion and relief from occasional constipation. The package is resealable, sturdy and keeps the husks fresh and dry. Overall, this is a high-quality source of natural fiber that supports healthy digestion and regularity.

Great value, great fiber

I have been taking this daily for 30+ years. Not because I need too, but because its awesome.

Easy to take and truly effective without the added sugar in other similar products!

The NOW Foods Psyllium Husks Whole has been a helpful addition to my diet, but it does come with some quirks worth mentioning. It’s incredibly high in fiber, which makes my stomach or intestines quite noisy at times—definitely noticeable after taking it. To avoid awkward moments at work, I’ve started drinking it before bed, which works well for me. I was initially warned it could cause stomach upset or even runny bowel movements, but I haven’t experienced that. I use about four tablespoons per serving, but everyone’s body reacts differently, so it’s worth starting with a smaller amount to see how it works for you. One important tip: mix it and drink it immediately! Whether I use almond milk or water, the psyllium husk thickens very quickly, turning into a gel-like consistency that becomes difficult to consume if you wait too long. If it gets too thick, it’s essentially wasted, so timing is everything. The taste is surprisingly mild and reminds me a bit of Weetabix, so it’s not hard to get down. I’m almost finished with my first bag, and considering how long it’s lasted me, I’m planning to repurchase in about four months. This product has been effective, and as long as you follow the mixing and timing tips, it’s a great option for adding fiber to your diet.

High quality supplement from Now Foods which I have purchased multiple times. This bulk deal was very economical and arrived quickly on my doorstep. I have found this product to be as effective as grocery store brand-name fiber supplements. I use Psyllium Husk to add fiber to my stool and ease my FODMAP gut issues. It is also effective for those with diarrhea issues. It is natural and plant-based.

I was using Metamucil and it really affected my bladder. This product is all natural with no added chemicals.
