It is very important to drink enough liquid when taking Psyllium husks.
One or two glasses of water or fruit juice should be taken with each dose. Larger doses can be taken for dealing with specific complaints like irritable bowel syndrome.
Whereas stimulant laxatives tend to create an immediate and sometimes violent response, the positive effects of psyllium husks on constipation are usually more gradual. It can take up to a few weeks for a change to be noticed. However, when the change is felt, it is a result of an actual toning of the bowels rather than simply an irritation and purge of them.
Serving:
1 or 2 teaspoons once or twice a day. It is recommended to start with a lower serving and gradually increase the intake.
Psyllium husks are very safe and are used by millions of people throughout the world as a natural alternative to chemical laxatives. They are the laxative of choice for children.
Because of the danger of intestinal obstruction, bulk-forming laxatives such as Psyllium Husks should not be taken by individuals with intestinal ulcerations, stenosis, or disabling adhesions.

Manufacture Process
In Spring the Organic Psyllium plants are ready to be harvested and dried. The plants are cut before peak maturity in order to save the seed which will be scattered on the wind if left on the plant. Harvested by hand the plants are left outside to dry for a couple of days before being threshed to extract the seed from the main plant. The seeds are then put into vibrating sieves which separates any loose plant material and sand from the seed. The seed is then inspected and any underdeveloped or damaged seed is discarded so that only the best specimens are left. To detatch the precious husk from the seed a grinder is employed before a gravity separator removes any other impurities that might be clinging to the husk. After this process only the husk is left which is then packed in all its raw beauty.
