About Ispaghol

Ispaghol, commonly known as psyllium husk, is derived from the seeds of the Plantago ovata plant, native to regions of Asia and the Mediterranean. This fiber-rich ingredient is widely recognized in South Asian cuisine and wellness traditions for its digestive benefits. Ispaghol is primarily composed of soluble fiber, which aids in gut health by promoting regular bowel movements and alleviating constipation. It's often used as a natural remedy for improving cholesterol levels, managing blood sugar, and supporting weight management due to its ability to prolong satiety. Traditionally consumed by mixing it with water, milk, or yogurt, Ispaghol's ability to absorb water makes it effective for cleansing the digestive tract. While generally safe, excessive intake can lead to bloating or reduced nutrient absorption. Incorporating Ispaghol into a balanced diet can contribute to overall digestive health and energy balance.
