Fiber Ultra Rich
Psyllium + Inulin
Fibre Ultra Rich Psyllium + Inulin is fortified with hibiscus flowers, licorice root, and cloves, offering soothing relief while serving as an effective source of fiber to gently alleviate constipation. Psyllium husks, recognized as a bulk-forming laxative, are abundant in both fiber and mucilage.
An outstanding natural fiber source, Fibre Ultra Rich Psyllium + Inulin features psyllium, a bulk-forming laxative rich in both fiber and mucilage, with psyllium containing 10–30% mucilage. The laxative effects of psyllium arise from the husk swelling upon contact with water, forming a gelatinous mass that maintains feces hydrated and soft, provided there is sufficient water intake. The resultant bulk triggers a reflex contraction of the bowel walls, facilitating bowel movements.
