Yerba Prima Psyllium Husk, 12 Ounce - Whole Husk Fiber Supplement, Vegan, No Sugar or Artificial Sweeteners, Non GMO, Gluten Free

Let me start by saying this: fiber is your friend. A loyal, dependable friend that keeps things moving in the right direction, promotes digestive harmony, and generally makes life a little smoother. And Yerba Prima Psyllium Whole Husks? This stuff is the gold standard. No fillers, no weird additives—just pure, wholesome fiber that’ll get the job done. But let me also say this: respect the fiber. Because if you don’t, things can get... complicated. I speak from experience. Like many who embark on a fiber journey, I started off responsibly—one dose, mixed with water, feeling virtuous and digestive-health-conscious. Things were good. Too good. I was feeling light, efficient, like a well-oiled machine. So naturally, in my infinite wisdom, I thought, “If a little fiber is good, then a lot of fiber must be amazing.” Which is how I found myself accidentally quadrupling the recommended dose for several days. At first, nothing happened. Then, something happened. Then, everything happened all at once. Bloating? Check. Strange noises emanating from my gut like an old house settling at night? Check. A growing sense of doom? Oh, absolutely. By day three, I was in uncharted territory. My stomach felt like a bag of cement being slowly inflated by a bicycle pump. The mere act of sitting down too quickly was a risky maneuver. There was an ominous pressure, the kind that makes you reevaluate your life choices. I briefly considered calling a doctor, but what was I going to say? “Help, I’ve made some very poor decisions with psyllium husks?” Thankfully, nature ran its course (several times), and I lived to tell the tale. But let my suffering be a cautionary tale: fiber is not a thrill ride. It is not a dare. It is not a test of wills. It is a responsible, measured commitment. That being said, when used correctly, this stuff is fantastic. It keeps things moving like a well-regulated train schedule, supports heart health, and generally makes you feel like a more functional human being. Just stick to the serving size unless you want to experience what I now call “The Reckoning.”

I love this product! I started taking psyllium to increase my fiber intake. I mix a teaspoon in 12oz of tea and after 5 minutes the texture is like very soft jelly. So, it's like drinking a tea jello. I look forward to drinking this every day. I also feel like it helps with digestion.

I recently added psyllium husk to my daily routine, and the results have been incredible. As a natural fiber supplement, it has significantly improved my digestion and overall gut health. Within just a few days of consistent use, I noticed a more regular digestive system, less bloating, and a feeling of lightness throughout the day. One of the things I love most about psyllium husk is its versatility—I can mix it into my morning smoothie, stir it into water, or even add it to oatmeal. It thickens quickly, so I make sure to drink plenty of water with it. Unlike other fiber supplements that can be harsh on the stomach, psyllium husk works gently, providing steady relief without cramping or discomfort. Now that it’s part of my daily routine, I can’t imagine going without it. If you’re looking for a simple yet effective way to support digestion, regularity, and gut health, I highly recommend giving psyllium husk a try!

This product is very convenient and effective.

This is a great product! I've just begun using it and my stomach feels so good! While I applaud those brave souls who can drink this down simply mixed in liquid, I have trouble doing that. Perhaps as I get more used to the whole husks, it won't bother me as much. What I love doing is mixing it with yogurt in the morning. It is fantastic! It adds a nice thickness and a bit of lovely texture to the yogurt. It blends well and doesn't turn into a scary gelatinous mess which can happen if it is allowed to sit too long in plain liquid. The perfect consistency for me is to put two teaspoons of the psyllium in every 1/4 cup of plain yogurt. I don't eat the very thick Greek style yogurt and so don't know if adding the psyllium would make a mess of it, but I'm sure it can be properly proportioned with a bit of experimentation, particularly if you add frozen fruit and other things that render additional liquid. I would just start with small amounts and observe what happens! I'm still figuring out its uses and will try adding it to oatmeal as well. A lot of people also include it in low-carb baking, soups, and puddings, which is interesting. It really does keep you feeling full and helps with regularity. I think it also adds nice variety. I already use flax seeds, glucommanan powder, and other konjac root products just about every day, and having another tasty, fiber option is great!

Let me just say that having flavor and presentation as rating values for fiber is just priceless :) Considering what this stuff is, and what its for, there's no room here for yumminess or umami or what have you. This is biological Drano and its mmm mmm healthy! Seriously though, this stuff is the real deal. The big brands will use psyllium but add softeners and bleach it to make it more soluble or pleasant or what have you. Be a big adult-person and just handle it, huh? This stuff does not dissolve in anything milder than hydrofluoric acid (I see you Breaking Bad fans there!) but honestly that is not a big deal. Stir, agitate, spin and then consume. Gulp it all down before it settles. You'll still have to deal with the beach-sand dregs at the bottom of the glass. I found something carbonated works wonderfully at helping hold this stuff in suspension for the extra minute you need to chug it. Efficacy. That is why you are drinking this. This stuff works. You are processing some raw vegetable fiber and your body will thank you after all those pounds of processed foods you shovel in, honest to God. This stuff works and there's no bloat or gas or what have you, in my experience. I am about eight months plus and three tubs in at this point, and it works like a charm. Just fiddle with your dosage until you are content with... the results. Everyone's plumbing is different, don't blame the psylluim at first!

Great daily fiber solution. Works in 2-3 days

This is a wonderful product that I have used for several years. NOTE: This is Yerba WHOLE HUSK, not Yerba powder which does not go into solution easily and does not function well. I use 2 tablespoons of the husk before going to bed. It helps to mix in slightly warm tap water for swallowing and for aiding it to go into solution better. I was so unhappy with the powder (that I accidentally ordered) that I tossed it into my garden compost bin. Buy the whole husk only!
