Pooperific!Nov 13, 2008
By Obsessive shopper This product is basically tasteless and easy to eat. I even kind of like the texture. If you mix it with water and weight it will turn into a kind of gel. It does have some tiny little leaves or something in it, but that seems harmless.
It works very well. Keeps you regular. It really eases IBS or hemmorhoids. Makes you feel full. Supposedly helps cut cholesterol and boost your immunity. Reduces your risk of cancer.
The best part about the whole psyllium husk is that it seems safer than the powdered stuff. I've gotten some really bad cramps and rock hard doodie from the powdered stuff. You have to be really careful to get LOTS of water with that stuff. The whole husk doesn't seem to cause that problem for some reason. Even if I take a lot larger dose.

All I can say is a great product!May 23, 2010

"Working it out"
I was diagnosed with Celiac disease about 4 years ago. Not being able to eat whole wheat items it became very difficult for me to get all on the fiber that I wanted and needed in my diet. I started researching to find out what I could eat or take to suppliment for lack of these items. I came across this item 3 and a half years ago and have been using it ever since. I add it to my breakfast be it oatmeal or cream of rice or just mix it with juice! It helps keep me full and keeps me regular! This is a great product! I love it!!! I use to buy it at all natural chain stores but they are very expensive! I started to look online and was estatic when I found it for a fraction of the cost! This is a great product I can not rave about it enough! Thanks to the makers for allowing it to be at such a good online price. Worth the cost and short wait for a fairly quick delivery! Love love love love this product! Good luck

"kiana"
Great product and excellent if added to healthy fruit smoothies because it's tasteless and because it's rich in fiber it feels you up and kills sweet cravings. Great for overall cleansing and well being.

easy way to slip fiber into the family dietAug 15, 2011
By Terry I am able to drink or eat stuff similar to tree bark to get fiber in my diet...my wife and 3 year old are a little more finicky. I mix this with my morning protein shake and it's great. You do have to drink it fairly quickly because it absorbs a lot of liquid and floats to the top creating a thick layer similar in consistency to tapioca.
For my wife and child, I slip a scoop of this into the family dinner. It mixes great in hamburger meat (hamburgers, meatloaf, etc) and can also be cooked in the rice cooker with rice and pasta. I've also made brownies, cookies and even oatmeal with this in it....and they never caught on.
Next, I plan to soak some in milk and try it in a batch of home made ice cream.
The husks do give a bit of a "brown rice flavor" to food and drink that doesn't have enough flavor to mask it. I personally like the flavor, and actually like mixing it in plain low fat milk for a nice end-of-day adult beverage with a little Bailey's or Kahlua.
The 10 pound bag is a little intimidating, but it is VERY easy to keep a small container in the pantry, while the rest stays sealed in the re-sealable original bag for refills.
