Psyllium Husk (Pack)

Psyllium or psyllium husk or ispagol is not a plant familiar to us from childhood, but a "noble" relative from the Indian state of Gujarat. Today, psyllium is valued for its record-breaking fiber content for detoxifying the body and fighting obesity, and as a base for gluten-free baked goods. This allows you to cook, for example, thin buckwheat pancakes. Try it, you will like it!

• Psyllium is 85% fiber, most of which is soluble. When water is added, psyllium husk turns into a jelly-like mass. This mass gently covers the walls of the stomach and intestines. It not only helps to heal micro-traumas of the gastrointestinal tract, prevents the absorption of fats and helps to cleanse the body, but is also an excellent tool for the growth of beneficial microflora.
• Psyllium creates a feeling of fullness for a long time. This quality, along with its obvious cleansing properties, allows it to be used in weight loss programs.
• One of the most important properties of psyllium is its ability to replace gluten in baked goods. Thus, using psyllium, you can replace wheat flour with healthier, gluten-free counterparts, such as buckwheat or amaranth.
