Psyllium Husk (99%) Extra White is a premium-grade dietary fiber sourced from the seeds of Plantago ovata, a plant native to India. It is widely recognized for its exceptional purity, superior whiteness, and high fiber content, making it ideal for a variety of applications across the pharmaceutical, food, and nutraceutical industries.
The “99% Extra White” label signifies the highest level of purity, where the husk is carefully cleaned and processed to remove impurities, discolored particles, and extraneous matter. What remains is a bright white, lightweight fiber with minimal dust, an extended shelf life, and excellent water absorption capacity.
This product is widely used as a natural laxative due to its high mucilage content, which helps in regulating bowel movements. When mixed with water, psyllium husk forms a gel-like substance that aids digestion and supports colon health. It is also used in weight management supplements, as the bulk-forming fiber promotes a feeling of fullness and helps reduce appetite.
Apart from health benefits, Psyllium Husk (99%) Extra White is also used in bakery products, breakfast cereals, gluten-free recipes, and animal feed to enhance fiber content. Its neutral taste and excellent gelling properties make it a versatile ingredient.
