Yerba Prima Psyllium Husk Powder - 24 oz - Fine Ground, Unflavored, Sugar Free - Natural Fiber Supplement - Also for Baking - Contains Both Soluble & Insoluble Bulk for Regularity Support

Excellent results. I started out taking daily but have adjusted to every other day as that is what works best for me. Movements are consistent, quick and mess free! Be sure you drink 8oz of water directly after. I take the powder with 12oz of water (shaken well) then follow with 8oz. I think room temp is best. Taste is not great - hold your nose and chug! It is worth it!

My bowels love this Prima psyillium powder, works fast so stay close to your bathroom.

Started taking psyllium husk for digestion. When we first used this it was clumpy and hard to mix. Did some research and saw the suggestion to use a cheap frothing tool to mix this (we got one from IKEA for $2-3). Makes a world of difference ~ doesn’t clump anymore and tastes great! Would recommend drinking as soon as you mix as it starts to turn to jelly pretty quickly.

I was shocked to discover that this and several other similar Fiber Products were the only ones with safe lead content. But I was afraid because the other three might be hard to adjust to because they were too hard to swallow and other issues. But the powder sounded OK and it turns out it was. I mix it with a small amount of juice in a container and then add the rest of the glass of juice and shake it well and vigorously while i does not dissolve like the popular brands, it is easy and pleasant to get down and easily tolerated because I drink lots of water knowing that without the liquid any fiber supplement can be dangerous. So far I have been most pleased with the firm stools and not having to use lots of tissue afterward, which I did with the others. And the stools are not TOO firm either because that can be a problem. Also the gas expelled usually late in the day is GAS and no surprises which could occur with the others. I wish I could tell the world to buy this stuff because my initial fear has turned to joy!!

When you get this, start with a small amount. I've been using psyllium husk for a long time. When I first started, I was using a teaspoon. Now I use the HANDLE of the teaspoon to measure out 1/8-1/4 of a teaspoon. Psyllium husk is hydrophobic at first (hates mixing), so if you try to mix it into a cold drink it'll clump up and you'll be chewing powery chunks in your drink. If possible, throw your drink and the powder into a blender. Or, mix the powder into a hot drink. EG: I mix it into a coffee in the morning that I add creamer and milk to after. The powder dissolves much better in hot drinks. Be sure to drink the drink quickly, or mix it up periodically, otherwise you'll end up with a big sludge of gel on the bottom of your drink. Whole psyllium husk doesn't mix as well as powder, so this powder is definitely the better option. I have bowel issues, no gallbladder, colon surgery that I've never "done business right" afterwards from, deal with bacteriosis overload sometimes, etc, etc. It can leave me wiping and wiping when I use the bathroom. I use 1-2x 1/4 teaspoon of psyllium powder daily, it clears things right up. I can "do the doo" like a normal person, and just wipe and be done instead of it feeling like my stools are clay or mud. The psyllium husk bulks and moves things out easily leaving little residue behind. Sounds gross, but you reach a certain age where you start to brag about how much better your bowel movements are with proper fiber supplement, and I've found that psyllium husk powder is the miracle cure. I've used various other brands, but yerba prima is the one I've found makes a good powder instead of just whole psyllium husks. And, like I said, a little goes a long way. Build up gradually to figure out how much you need / can tolerate. Sometimes you don't need much.

I bought this because it doesn't contain the additives that Metamucil and others have and contains a high quality psyllium husk. It really is a high quality product. I mix it with room temperature juice as I think it helps to dissolve better instead of clump up like it does with cold juice. There is a mild taste to it but you can barely taste it when it's mixed with juice. It did take me a couple of glasses to get used to the texture and taste but now I'm so used to it, I don't even notice it. I started taking it bc my dr wanted me to start taking a fiber supplement to help with my cholesterol and I'm happy to report that it has helped bring down my triglycerides from 450 to 76, although I still have high LDL cholesterol and high total cholesterol (my total cholesterol did come down though just not within normal limits). I will continue taking this since it seems to be helping. Just be careful, you want to drink plenty of fluids with any fiber supplement otherwise it can constipate you.

I love the effectiveness of this product, but it is extremely difficult to mix.

.. I use one 8 oz cup of water add one spoonful of the Yerba prima psyllium husk powder & I add a spoon of organic honey & it works & it tastes really good.,
