The mucilages in psyllium are emollient; they soften, lubricate and protect the lining of the gastro-intestinal tract. Psyllium is useful in conditions where the intestinal lining is irritated (irritable bowel, inflammatory diseases of the colon). Psyllium helps control fermentation and growth of intestinal bacteria. It also absorbs toxins in the intestines and helps eliminate them. [POWDER]

PSYLLIUM - POWDERED SEED HUSKS
Mechanism Of Action
Rich in mucilage, psyllium is used mainly to regulate the intestinal transit. Its absorbent quality considerably increases the volume of water in the feces, which softens feces and stimulates peristalsis, thereby easing elimination. Plantago ovata is very useful for constipation or any condition where intestinal elimination needs help (anal fissures,
hemorrhoids, pregnancy, after anal or rectal surgery). Psyllium seed husks are mostly made up of fibre, therefore they are not digested and have a strictly mechanical effect on the intestines. Using psyllium helps accelerate intestinal transit and increase the number of bowel movements per day. Where there is
diarrhea, psyllium absorbs excess water in the intestine and helps form solid feces.
The mucilages in psyllium are emollient; they soften, lubricate and protect the lining of the gastro-intestinal tract. Psyllium is useful in conditions where the intestinal lining is irritated (irritable bowel, inflammatory diseases of the colon). Psyllium helps control fermentation and growth of intestinal bacteria. It also absorbs toxins in the intestines and helps eliminate them.
The power of its absorbent properties is not limited to intestinal transit. It also acts on cholesterol and triglyceride levels (LDL, total cholesterol). By attaching itself to bile acids, psyllium increases the elimination of cholesterol by the intestines and increases the synthesis of bile salts from cholesterol. Psyllium also helps regulate blood sugar by slowing the absorption of glucose by the intestines. Its high fiber content helps feel satiated and is useful for weight loss.
The main constituents of psyllium seeds are mucilages, with a high proportion of hemicellulose but also some arabinose, rhamnose, xylose and galacturonic acid.

high blood pressure. It seems that psyllium was used as food by the Aztecs and that is was valued by Indian and Persian doctors in the Middle-Ages.
