Nature's Sunshine Psyllium Hulls
*** Nature's Sunshine is re-branding - you may receive old or new packaging with your order. There has been no formulation change ***
Psyllium Hulls have one of the highest levels of soluble fibre known—much more than that of oat bran. Encapsulated psyllium hulls are a convenient way to add essential fibre to the daily diet. Natures Sunshine Psyllium Hulls can help lower cholesterol, relieve both constipation and diarrhoea, and are used to treat irritable bowel syndrome, haemorrhoids, and other intestinal problems. Psyllium has also been used to help regulate blood sugar levels in people with diabetes.
Natures Sunshine Psyllium Hulls are a great source of fibre and are appropriate to take long term. Each serving can deliver the following health benefits:
- Supports Digestive Health: Preliminary research shows that psyllium may help with the painful symptoms associated with intestinal conditions. This means it soaks up water in your gut and makes bowel movements much easier and can help promote regularity without increasing flatulence. It can be used as a one-off to ease constipation, or it can be added to your diet to help promote regularity and overall digestive health.
- Supports Cholesterol Levels Already in the Normal Range: Research has shown that taking soluble fibre can help people manage their cholesterol levels. Proper cholesterol regulation is important for everyone, but it’s vital for people over the age of 50. Numerous studies have shown that fibre like psyllium, taken as part of a healthy diet, can help lower a person’s risk of heart disease. Psyllium can affect your heart by lowering blood pressure, improving lipid levels, and strengthening the heart muscle.
- Maintaining a Healthy Weight: Maintaining a healthy weight is a concern for many people, especially those with chronic conditions like diabetes. Besides being good for your heart and blood sugar levels, psyllium may help you lose weight. Because psyllium absorbs liquid in your body, it can help give you a feeling of being full. This can help you control the amount of food you eat.
The Psyllium Hulls is a water-soluble fibre that forms a mucilaginous gel on contact with water so acts as a bulking agent by swelling up to 14 times its original size. This enhances peristalsis, which is the wave-like muscular action that moves food along in the digestive tract making it beneficial in the treatment of constipation or for those suffering from haemorrhoids. Natures Sunshine Psyllium Husk can assist those with diabetes by contributing to maintaining a healthy glycemic balance.
