A well balanced diet with the correct levels of fibre can help to support proper elimination. This is necessary for the digestive system to work effectively. Adequate fibre in the diet is now accepted as being vital for digestive regularity. Most people only consume around 15g of fibre, when in fact more than 25g are needed. Fibre helps to support the transit of waste products.<br/><br/>Psyllium husks absorb 20 times their own weight in water. The result is a soft gel which continues to absorb in the intestinal tract. <br/><br/>Psyllium husks are an ideal source of fibre for those that have an intolerance to wheat.
