Health Plus Psyllium Seed Husk Fibre 90 Capsules

When the food we eat is not properly digested and absorbed we can develop symptoms of nutritional deficiency. To use the phrase 'you are what you eat' is not strictly true; 'you are what you absorb' is probably more correct. A significant proportion of the nutrients in our diet never get absorbed into the body, but by maintaining a clean and healthy digestive system absorption of these nutrients can be improved! Digestive Fibre! Some foods contain substantial amount of fibre, particularly cereals, pulses, and some fruit and vegetables. Fibre is an indigestible complex carbohydrate and is either water-soluble or water-insoluble. Soluble fibre is absorbed by the body and may help maintain normal cholesterol levels, where as insoluble fibre is not absorbed by the body, so acts as a bulking agent to help maintain regular movements and intestinal health. Most people do not eat the recommended 18g of fibre each day, so they may find that a fibre supplement is the most practical way to up their intake. Psyllium is a remarkable fibre, containing both soluble and insoluble fibre and mucilage. Which helps provide your digestive system with the extra fibre it needs to perform properly. A great way to cleanse the colon, relieve constipation and has been shown to be useful in cases of IBS. Presented in a convenient gelatin free take anywhere capsule!
