NOW Foods Psyllium Husk 500 mg 200 Veg Capsules

Three capsules supply 1.5 g psyllium seed husk and 1.1 g dietary fiber, including one gram of soluble fiber. The husk weight and fiber contribution are separately stated because they are not the same measurement.

NOW directs three capsules with an eight-ounce glass of liquid, two or three times daily. Capsules remove the need to mix loose fiber powder but do not remove the fluid requirement. The warning states that too little liquid can cause choking and that the product should not be taken by people who have difficulty swallowing.
