The new guidelines also show that taking #psyllium #fiber supplements, certain #probiotic strains and magnesium oxide supplements can help to improve constipation.

I don’t bake gluten free but I use #Psyllium Husk for pure spelt breads which easily bake dry. I soak the husk with hot water so it becomes a gel which I let cool down and store in the fridge. Mixing this later in evenly while kneading is NO problem at all. This allows me to control the dough temperature nicely even in summer heat. Spelt prefers colder dough temperatures. I won’t recommend mixing flour and psyllium because the water absorption is very different and needs time.

#WaPo Most #supplements aren’t worth your money. This one is.

Studies have consistently shown that #psyllium may lower #cholesterol, dampen #glucose spikes, help us stay full longer, and even aid in treating diarrhea and constipation.

TIL don't add 1 tablespoon of psyllium husk to 8oz of yogurt - it turns it into concrete. Maybe that's what the secret ingredient in "Roman concrete" was? 😂

Woke up this morning to some good personal news. My #cologuard test results arrived. Negative. Won’t be bothering with that kind of cancer for a bit. If ever. #psyllium #fiber is the cheapest and best healthcare additive I’ve ever done for myself. It may have even saved my life a little bit. I love when tests come back Negative. #today #health #GoodNews

I use psyllium husk fiber as a supplement, and find it to be super helpful for staying "regular". I was curious how it worked so I looked it up and came across this paper, https://journals.lww.com/nutritiontodayonline/Fulltext/2021/07000/Psyllium__The_Gel_Forming_Nonfermented_Isolated.5.aspx . The idea is that the gel forming behavior of psyllium husk fiber is the most important factor allowing all the benefits. Take the paper with a grain of salt though because the authors are affiliated with Proctor and Gamble which makes Metamucil.

Spent the last hour trying to figure out who sells premium grade #psyllium husk Powder since #terrasoul has been out of stock since last fall. It’s basically only grown for export in India and needs to be tested for lead. This company in #Germany says there is only one producer in India who can make premium grade psyllium. I have to tell you as someone who does an absolute ton of #GlutenFreeBaking, premium psyllium makes a massive difference in the final product.

10:02 all a A flohsamen.eu/en/about-psy.. B C our online shop, the declarations on the label and product packaging are checked for accuracy and the goods are checked for compliance with the specification. This lets our customers know that they are receiving an inspected product from the manufacturer. These parameters are also reviewed regularly by the competent supervisory authorities. Only products with a purity of 99% can be called premium grade: This grade contains only a little more than 1% of natural residues from the harvest. The high purity is evident from the very light colour of the psyllium husk, which is very white with few dark specks. The highest quality organic psyllium husk is snow white in colour. So far, there has been only one producer in India capable of producing this exclusively premium product, made from the finest grade psyllium using a high-tech cleaning system.

I usually have 1 #banana, 1/2 scoop #whey #protein + 1/2 scoop #vegan protein + 4 Brazil #nuts and a couple of other nuts for breakfast. Somehow this makes me nauseated and just doesn't seem to sit well with my stomach. Oh, and a few #supplements - #creatine, #vitamins C&D, vitamin B complex, #magnesium, fish oil. I also used to take #psyllium husk but it just makes the breakfast feel even heavier. Gotta see which of all these elements may be upsetting my stomach...
