Préparation et dosage
Consume 1 tablespoon of psyllium seed husk (equal to 5 g) with a big glass of water (250 ml), twice daily 30 minutes before meal (morning and evening). Some take 15 g per day.
Psyllium husk can be consumed raw or cooked in the oven at 200 °C for 15 minutes.
Proven health benefits of Psyllium
Psyllium decreases appetite (more feelings of fullness and less hunger between meals). It also decreases blood pressure and improves lipid profile.
Psyllium also improves constipation, albeit prune, dried plums, kiwi fruits or flaxseed seem to be better. The consumption of Psyllium has also been proven to improve the gastric tolerance of oral antidiabetics (i.e. metformin).
