About Metamucil

Metamucil is a fiber supplement made primarily from psyllium husk, a plant-based ingredient commonly used to support digestive health. Derived from the plant Plantago ovata, psyllium husk is rich in soluble fiber, which helps promote regular bowel movements, lower cholesterol levels, and support heart health. While not tied to a specific cuisine, Metamucil is often used in Western diets to boost fiber intake in cases where daily consumption of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains may fall short. Available in powdered and capsule forms, it typically has minimal calories and no artificial stimulants, making it a natural addition to a balanced diet. However, individuals should drink plenty of water when consuming Metamucil to avoid potential digestive discomfort. Free from gluten and suitable for most dietary preferences, it’s an easy way to enhance fiber intake for improved overall wellness.
