Product description

Natural Vital Fibre is a combination of 80%Plantago Psyllium seeds and 20%Plantago Ovata husk. Natural Vital Fibre is designed to help maintain the efficient functioning of the digestive system. It encourages regular bowel movements by providing natural fibre, and eliminates constipation. Psyllium also known as Ispaghula or Isabgol is derived from the seed of the Plantago Ovata plant (botanical name: Plantago Ovata). Psyllium husk is an excellent source of soluble dietary fibre that cannot be digested in the small intestine, but partially broken down in the colon. It is native to Europe, North Africa and Asia and been used for thousands of years as a safe and effective bulk laxative. Psyllium husk is used by millions of people throughout the world as a natural alternative to over-the-counter laxatives. Psyllium soaks up a significant amount of water in the digestive tract, thereby making stool firmer and, under these circumstances, slower to pass. Psyllium also has the additional advantages over other sources of fiber of reducing flatulence and bloating. Psyllium is often used as an ingredient in high-fibre breakfast cereals. It is also excellent for those with an inadequate fibre intake resulting from modern western fast-food diets or those with a sedentary lifestyle and the elderly. Psyllium is also great if you’re following a diet such as the Atkins or Dukan as it is very difficult to get enough fibre in a diet when you eliminate the carbohydrates in cereals, whole grains and fruits.
