Psyllium Husks Morning Protein Smoothie

Psyllium is derived from the plant Plantago ovata. Psyllium seed husks are indigestible in human beings and are often used as a source of dietary fiber. Psyllium seed husks are portions of the seeds of the plant Plantago ovata, a native of India, Iran and Pakistan. Psyllium seed husk is essentially one of the greatest all-natural sources of soluble dietary fiber.

Morning Smoothie with Psyllium Husks
  • Greens of some sort (use spinach, lettuce, or cabbage, rotating between)
  • Half a cumber
  • 1/2 frozen apple (keep these in the freezer)
  • Some pieces of fresh mango or plum
  • My liquid vitamins
  • 1 tablespoon flax
  • 1 tablespoon psyllium husks
  • To the fill line with coconut water
put everything in the bullet and mix for 1 minute. Yumm! Some days you will be also add a banana.

Yogurt & Berry Protein Smoothie


  • 1 apple, cored and chopped (a banana also works)

  • 150g yogurt
  • 15g unflavored whey protein (use Pulsin’s Organic Whey Protein)
  • 1 Tbsp psyllium husk (optional, adds fiber and makes it thicker)
  • 1 tsp flax seed (optional, also adds fiber and thickness)

Psyllium Husk Is One Of The Best Fiber Supplements In Your Diet

Fiber takes up space in the stomach and promotes satiety without actually contributing any calories to the body’s metabolism. Naturally high-fiber foods, such as vegetables, therefore provide more fullness per calorie than other foods.

Psyllium husk benefits are numerous. Found on the seeds of the Plantago ovata. For many people it is the fiber supplement to choose, not only because it is able to give them the fibre that they need but because there are many more health benefits to be gained from taking it. By using psyllium husk daily you can easily increase your daily fibre intake, which will provide your body with multiple benefits.

Psyllium husk has been found to have been consumed as early as 3000 B.C. It contains high amounts of dietary fibre. When exposed to water, psyllium absorbs the liquid and forms a gel-like substance. Other uses include gluten-free baking, where ground psyllium seed husks bind moisture.

Psyllium husk, like all fiber, has many health benefits. When you consume fiber, it makes you feel more full, which can keep you from overeating. It also decreases the rate at which sugar from your food enters your bloodstream, helping to maintain your blood sugar and prevent diabetes. The increased bulk of your food because of the presence of fiber helps increase the efficiency of your gut, and fiber also binds toxins and cholesterol.

Fiber plays an important role in weight management. Studies show that eating foods high in fiber can keep you full and, studies show that fiber intake is inversely associated with body weight and body fat. And finally, dietary fiber, notably insoluble fiber, can help relieve constipation.

There are many ways to get fiber in your diet -- fresh fruits and vegetables are a great source -- but you can supplement with psyllium husk powder if you're not sure you're getting enough dietary fiber. Each psyllium husk supplement is slightly different, so check package directions carefully before use.

Psyllium husk is used to help weight loss as part of a healthy balanced diet and if used correctly can increase the amount of fat in the stools. It also reduces your appetite giving you that fuller feeling for longer, so you won’t be tempted to snack between meals and helping you to shed those extra pounds. Take psyllium 10 to 20 minutes before meals as an aid to weight loss.

Although there are so many benefits of consuming the Psyllium husk, it is important not to be the victim of scams. There may be many weight loss programs that claim the use of the Psyllium husk. However, to be a wise consumer, always take time to do the necessary research first before falling prey to the Psyllium husk benefits advertised by the manufacturer.

Psyllium husk is usually found in powder or capsule form. Psyllium is one of the healthiest, simplest and effective forms for weight control. By adding psyllium fiber to your diet, not only will you feel more satisfied and eat less if you are dieting, it acts as a natural colon cleanse, and is good for heart disease, diabetes, high triglycerides, and irritable bowel syndrome. The benefits of taking psyllium fiber to promote weight loss, may have other benefits, as well.

Psyllium Husk is Helpful for Weight Loss in Natural Way

Psyllium husk contains extensive amount of soluble as well as insoluble natural fibers which is responsible for it's laxative action. Light brown to white in color, depending upon the purity, the fibrous husks that are processed from psyllium seeds find usage in Pharmaceutical, Cosmetics, Food and varied allied industries.

Since psyllium is a water soluble-fiber it attracts water to itself in the intestine allowing for the formation of firmer stools but soft in texture that take longer to traverse the intestinal tract. This helps to ease both constipation and diarrhea and make it less painful to go for individuals who have hemorrhoids. Psyllium Husk Benefits also include less bloating and gas formation that other fibers products are known to cause.

Psyllium husks are also available in capsule form, taken as a supplement. Or they can be converted into powder, or simply in their natural form. Psyllium should always be taken on an empty stomach – that is 1 hour to 30 minutes before breakfast and/or lunch and/or supper.

Psyllium Husk’s high fiber content and colon cleansing properties helps in regulating bowel movements, relieving constipation and improving digestion. Apart from bowel regulation, research done on Psyllium Husk shows that it helps lower blood cholesterol because it lowers lipoproteins, which are commonly called “bad cholesterol”. Lower blood cholesterol can save us from high blood pressure and stroke.

Psyllium Husk produces softer, bulkier stool at regular intervals which relieves constipation. When our body fails to function well to have regular bowel movement, all toxins are stuck inside making us uneasy. The trapped toxins can produce harmful bacteria that make us ill. Taking high fiber supplement like Psyllium saves us from stomach distress and sickness. Psyllium Husk acts like a huge sponge once in our body. It absorbs water, cleans the colon walls, initiates stimulating contraction and passes the toxins out through stool. We should always drink plenty of water when taking high fiber supplements to help them work better on our digestive system.

Psyllium husk side effects are usually mild and include gas and bloating. However, it’s important to discuss any over the counter medication or supplement with your health care provider before taking. These products might conflict with medications you are currently taking, and health conditions that you already have. That’s why it’s critical that you discuss your fiber supplement intentions with your doctor before beginning.

Regular intake of Psyllium Husk promotes in losing extra pounds from stuck body toxins. Regular exercise and healthy diet while taking Psyllium Husk will greatly help to speed up losing unwanted body fats.
