Psyllium is a form of fiber made from the Plantago ovata plant, specifically from the husks of the plantâs seed. It sometimes goes by the name ispaghula. Itâs most commonly known as a laxative. Psyllium provides more benefits to your body than decreasing the amount of time you spend in the bathroom.
Not All Fibers Are Created Equal. Sure, fiber supplements are a convenient way to increase your daily fiber intake. But what you may not have realized is that not all fibers are the same. MetamucilÂ® is the only leading fiber supplement brand with 100% natural psyllium fiber â and that makes all the difference. Psyllium husk, a natural dietary fiber originating from plantago ovata, has been the source of both soluble and insoluble fiber in Metamucil for 80 years. Studies suggest that the psyllium in Metamucil works differently. The psyllium fiber in Metamucil forms a viscous gel that traps some bile acids (made from cholesterol) and gently removes them from your body. This gel also traps some carbohydrates and sugars, allowing them to be more slowly absorbed by the body.
