Dietary
Soluble Fibre (Psyllium Husk)
for IBS / Bloating
Psyllium husk forms a gel in the gut that normalises stool consistency and reduces IBS symptoms in both constipation and diarrhoea subtypes.
How it works
Forms a viscous gel that slows digestion, regulates stool water content, and feeds beneficial gut bacteria as a prebiotic.
What to watch for
Always take with a full glass of water to prevent choking or blockage. Start slowly to allow the gut to adjust. Insoluble fibre (wheat bran) can worsen IBS — avoid.
