Psyllium Husks
Regarding digestive health, it has been reported that a quarter of Canadians experience symptoms of constipation, characterized by infrequent or difficult bowel movements. Additionally, a 2004 study revealed that over 63 million people in North America meet the criteria for constipation. Fortunately, there are natural remedies available for this common issue. Psyllium husks offer gentle relief from constipation and irregularity by increasing the bulk and water content of stool, which promotes bowel movements. Incorporate Flora Psyllium Husks into your daily routine by adding them to water, juice, or milk for natural constipation relief.
