Product Information from Yerba Prima
Promotes Regularity
Supports Heart Health
BENEFITS: Psyllium Whole Husks is an economically priced colon cleansing dietary fiber for promoting regularity and supporting heart health. It is most effective when used everyday, and can be used as long as desired.
There are many reasons why psyllium husks are a part of daily health maintenance for millions of people. Extensive research has shown that psyllium husks help maintain healthy cholesterol levels, including a proper balance of HDL and LDL cholesterol. In addition, psyllium husks help promote normal regularity. Unlike stimulant laxatives, psyllium husks are gentle and are not habit forming. Psyllium husks' bulking action makes elimination easier and more comfortable. At the same time, psyllium sweeps waste and toxins more quickly out of the body, so toxins are not reabsorbed from the colon back into the bloodstream. Gluten-Free: psyllium husks do not contain any gluten so people who are gluten sensitive can use them. Yerba Prima uses only premium quality psyllium husks, without added sweeteners, colors or additives.

Suggested Use: ADULTS AND CHILDREN OVER 12: 1 tablespoon, one to three times a day. CHILDREN 6 - 12: 1 teaspoon, one to three times a day. See Directions.
Directions:
Start by taking 1 serving each day. Increase to 2 or 3 servings per day if needed. Can be taken either between meals, or with food, as desired. Stir powder briskly into at least 8 ounces (a full glass) of liquid. Juice, water, soy or rice drink, and milk are all good with Psyllium Whole Husks. Drink immediately. Drinking additional liquid is helpful. If minor gas or bloating occurs, reduce the amount you take until your system adjusts.
Caution:
A very small percentage of individuals, particularly health care providers who have been occupationally exposed to psyllium dust, may develop a sensitivity to psyllium. This sensitivity may result in an allergic reaction. If you experience a strong reaction, with difficulty in swallowing or breathing, after taking this product, seek immediate medical attention. Keep out of the reach of children.
