A Yours is just one of many queries I have received on this subject. The ideal relative humidity in a British home is around 50 to 55 per cent.
Psyllium is a soluble fiber used primarily as a gentle bulk-forming laxative in products such as Metamucil. It comes from a shrub-like herb called Plantago ovata that grows worldwide but is most common in India. Each plant can produce up to 15,000 tiny, gel-coated seeds, from which psyllium husk is derived.
Although psyllium husk can help to promote bowel regularity, taking psyllium is not typically recommended for those with kidney disease. This is because psyllium can be high in nutrients such as magnesium that should be avoided with chronic kidney disease. Always talk to your physician before taking psyllium to relieve irregularity to ensure it is safe for your condition.
