Natural
Psyllium Husk
for Constipation
Psyllium husk supplement (5–10g with a full glass of water) taken daily as a bulk-forming laxative.
How it works
Absorbs water in the gut to form a viscous gel, bulking and softening stool and stimulating peristaltic movement.
What to watch for
Must be taken with at least 240ml of water — without adequate fluid can cause choking or worsen constipation. Can reduce absorption of some medications — take separately.
