ORGANIC INDIA Whole Psyllium Husk Powder Organic – Psyllium Husk Fiber Supplement, Digestion Support, Vegan, Gluten-Free, Non-GMO, Soluble & Insoluble Fiber Source – 12 oz (Pack of 1)

So far, so good.
This is the only fiber supplement that has worked for me. I have tried plenty of them. It started working the same day, even with using less than the recommended amount. I haven’t experienced any gas or cramping like I did some of the other brands. Just be sure to drink plenty of water.

Organic, no sugar or artificial sweeteners
Been using for years, so much better for you than Metamucil

Time to shut down the soft-serve machine
I’m a big fan of psyllium husk as part of a healthy diet. Our modern diet consists of low-fiber processed foods that our bodies have not evolved to accept. The basic mechanism of action is purely mechanical. Psyllium husk absorbs water and turns into a slippery, jello-like substance that your body cannot digest. As this lubed-up mass slides through your colon, it takes with it all sorts of garbage that would probably prefer to just hang out in your poop tube. The result is a perfect, solid corn loaf and a squeaky clean digestive tract that is ready for another round of grandma’s cooking. If you take enough of the stuff, your anus will walk away cleaner than a microchip clean room. You’ll be able to close down your soft-serve ice cream stand for the season. No need to wipe here, folks. Leave that toilet paper at the store – where it belongs.Don’t let them fool you with the labeling. There’s nothing special about “organic” psyllium husk unless it gives you that warm and fuzzy knowing that you’re crapping out nature’s finest mucilage. It’s all about the same, and it all works. This particular brand does not use any flavoring or colors, leaving just a can of raw husks, which tastes like drinking a cup of something you scraped off of your lawn mower blade. When mixed with a protein shake or anything else with flavor, it blends in just fine. If you find it at a good price, go ahead and buy this stuff. Your body will thank you.

Gallbladder and Pancreatitis pain gone! Cholesterol down! Polyp Shrinking!
A couple months ago I began experiencing left-sided back and abdominal pain. I knew it was my pancreas. An abdominal ultrasound confirmed I had a 6 mm polyp in my gallbladder, and these can cause pancreatic pain. The area over my gallbladder was also tender to the touch. My symptoms flared anytime I ate anything with fat. I started getting the pain on a daily basis. Upon further research, I learned that the majority of gallbladder polyps are caused by high cholesterol, which I also had. First I tried TUDCA and Ox bile supplement, which helped but not without other side effects so I stopped those. Next I tried aloe vera juice, which got rid of the pancreatic pain beautifully, however, it tasted just awful. Very bitter. So I started to think about how I could fix the root of the problem, which was my high cholesterol. I read about a study that showed Psyllium Husk can lower cholesterol. So I began with one tablespoon a day of the psyllium in the morning (tastes just like a milkshake when you blend it with oat milk). On the first day, I was dreading lunch because I was going to eat food with some fat in it, but after I ate the symptoms were very mild. By the third day I was not experiencing any pain at all when I ate. Wow. I really was not expecting this to work for the pancreatic/gallbladder pain. I was just hoping for it to lower my cholesterol after long-term use. It has now been 10 days since starting the psyllium and any symptoms I feel are so mild they are barely noticeable compared to before. I will definitely keep drinking this daily. I will update my review in a few months if this helps with shrinking the gallbladder polyp and/or lowering my cholesterol.UPDATE 07/21/22: I recently got updated labs. My total cholesterol went from 228 to 211, LDL cholesterol went from 152 to 134, and Non HDL Cholesterol went from 177 to 155. That is quite the drop after only 1 month of psyllium and oat milk in the morning. Prior to that I had been eating oats in the morning for about a month. For full disclosure I also replaced my normal greasy dinner with food containing lots of greens such as an oil-free chicken salad. For lunch I eat whatever greasy meal I want. Also my pancreatic and gallbladder pain is completely gone and has not returned (stopped completely within 2 weeks of starting the psyllium). I will update again once I get my follow-up gallbladder ultrasound in 3 months.UPDATE 12/13/22:Just went for my 6-month follow up ultrasound after the last one showed I had a 6 mm polyp in my gallbladder. Doctor told me that these could not be shrunk and that it will continue to grow, but I found a study that said psyllium could shrink these. Well I just got my results and my polyp is now 5 mm!! I know that doesn’t sound like much but when you compare the two measurements, it is a noticeable difference. Shrinking is better than growing! I initially made some dietary changes after my first ultrasound but eventually reverted to eating what I wanted so I know it was the psyllium that helped. I have also been working on fixing any nutritional deficiencies with multi vitamins. But I tried to stick with the psyllium as best as I could. Sometimes I went days or even weeks without taking the psyllium because I’m busy with law school and I would forget. I believe that had I been more consistent, my polyp would have shrunk even more. I’m now back on the psyllium and will try to stay consistent until this polyp is completely gone.
