Why it's great quality

Psyllium (also known as isabgol) is the husks of the grass-like plantago plant. The fibrous husks are soluble in water and create a viscous, mucilaginous consistency (somewhat like chia seeds).

Ours is pre-powdered, meaning it dissolves quicker and is in a more convenient form to be incorporated in to recipes.

Nothing added, nothing taken away. No additives or preservatives. No nasties.

WHAT IT’S FOR

Commonly used a thickening agent suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

A source of slow release energy and high in fibre, linked to promoting a healthy gut and good digestion. Can be taken regularly to promote efficient and regular GI transit.

Contraindications: None.

WHERE IT’S FROM

We import from India, where it's commonly found on the rolling fields of the states of Gujarat and Rajasthan. Psyllium has been cultivated in India since at least the Middle Ages, when it brought to India's west coast by Arabs. It's part of traditional Ayurvedic medicine.

Environmental impact

It's a hardy plant that grows well and is considered sustainable relative to other crops as there is no known significant damage to air, water or soil quality associated with its cultivation. Likewise the areas it grows are not heavily forested so it's cultivation doesn't drive deforestation.
