Psyllium Husk is obtained from the seeds of the Plantago ovata plant and is a valuable source of soluble fibre. These swell up in water, promote a feeling of fullness and support healthy digestion. Psyllium can also help to regulate blood sugar levels, lower cholesterol and support weight management.
In addition to its health benefits, psyllium husk is used in various industries. In the food industry, it is used as a fibre supplement, a binding agent in gluten-free baked goods and a thickening agent in sauces and soups. In the health sector, it aids digestion, helps regulate blood sugar levels and contributes to lowering cholesterol. In animal nutrition, it is used to promote the intestinal health of dogs, cats and horses. It is also used in the cosmetics and industrial sectors as a binding agent in skin care products and technical applications.
With the growing trend towards healthy eating and clean-label products, the demand for natural fibres such as psyllium husk is increasing.
