Thoughts about psyllium husk

Hi Joma,

Use the search here, there are many discussions on psyllium in the UC forum. Tons of input on this.
In short, I love psyllium husk, take it twice a day. One thing I have found over the years that is if I have not been using the psyllium for a period, when I do start using again I get kind of backed up for a few days before it makes me regular.
A lot of people here like psyllium seed powder better than the husk, but for the the seed gave me the dreaded dark gas, a gas so powerful my dog was put to shame and my wife was packing her bags! So for me it's the husk. Love it. Flare, remission, whatever.

I couldn't handle the taste, so at quite an expense I switched to gnu fiber bars, they are delicious and a meal replacement, even dropped some weight.

I take 1 tbsp morning, and one evening. I am very consistent because it works. I don't drink it for enjoyment, but I can get over the taste vs the alternative. Great stuff.

Thanks for you answers. I think I will continue to take it. I got the powdered husk from my local herb store in bulk. In the few days I have used it I have taken just two teaspoons per day at separate time. Perhaps I will increase slowly?
