Composition
Each serving of Fiberlax contains 3.5 grams of Psyllium Husk as its active component. When mixed with water, this husk forms a viscous gel that effectively alleviates constipation and helps maintain regular bowel function.
Description
Psyllium Husk is a gentle laxative rich in 80% soluble fiber. Its primary active ingredient, mucilage, is particularly effective for chronic constipation, hemorrhoids, and supporting colon health. Additionally, it provides soothing benefits for the gastric and intestinal linings, aiding in gastric irritation and ulcers. Psyllium has been shown to lower serum cholesterol levels (LDL) and helps regulate blood glucose, making it suitable for individuals with obesity and diabetes.
