Suggested/Recommended/Usage/Directions
Suggested Use: Adults and children over 12: 1 tablespoon, 1 to 3 times a day. Children 6-12: 1 teaspoon, 1 to 3 times a day. Start by taking 1 serving each day. Gradually increase to 3 servings per day if needed. Stir 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.

If minor gas or bloating occurs, reduce the amount you take until your system adjusts. Use every day for best results.
Suggested/Recommended/Usage/Directions
Great for regularity and colon health! Psyllium husks promote easy, healthy elimination and sweep waste out of the colon more quickly. Psyllium husks provide gentle fiber to soothe and normalize the bowel when there is discomfort. To maintain regularity and colon health, take 1 to 3 servings a day, with meals or between meals. Great for weight maintenance! Dietary fiber plays an important role in weight loss and maintaining healthy weight. High fiber foods like psyllium husks help promote satiety (a feeling of fullness). To support weight maintenance, take 1 to 3 servings a day, shortly before meals or with meals. Great for heart health! To help support heart health, take 2 servings a day, with meals.
