Bekunis® Organic Indian Psyllium Husks, 500 G

Bekunis® organic Indian psyllium husks have a special swelling capacity compared to other sources of dietary fibre, such as wheat bran or linseed. Particularly rich in fibre, filling and well tolerated.

Bekunis® BIO Indian psyllium husks are a purely natural product that can be used to support mild intestinal sluggishness and other digestive problems, such as hard stools. Indian psyllium husks contain particularly effective soluble fibre as well as swelling and lubricating substances that bind many times their own weight in liquid and transport it into the intestine. The intestinal contents become softer and increase in volume due to the added liquid. This stimulates the natural movement of the bowel and facilitates intestinal transit.

Bekunis® BIO Indian psyllium husks are well tolerated, particularly filling, neutral in flavour and can be easily integrated into the daily diet. Simply stir a slightly heaped teaspoon into water, allow to swell briefly (approx. 60 seconds) and drink immediately. Then drink at least the same amount of liquid. Alternatively, the recommended amount can be added to muesli, yoghurt or smoothies.

Indian psyllium husks can be used in a variety of ways, e.g. for gluten-free cooking and baking. Psyllium husks are vegan and can be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding and for children from the age of 6.

The seed husks are particularly rich in soluble fibre and have a high swelling capacity. In contrast to other sources of fibre such as wheat bran or linseed, they bind many times more liquid due to their enormous swelling capacity. They contain 20-30% mucilage, which supports natural intestinal movement (intestinal peristalsis) and digestion.
