Psyllium (Latin: Plantago ovate) comes from India, where it is also most extensively cultivated today. It produces small seeds. When soaked in liquid, the water soluble seed husks form a slimy gelatin-like substance. Psyllium is high in dietary fiber (over 85%). High content of dietary fiber has a beneficial effect on digestion. Dietary fiber is a carbohydrate, but since it cannot be digested by the body, it has virtually no caloric value but nevertheless imparts a sense of fullness. When taking psyllium, it is very important to drink plenty of liquid.

• Vegan.

How's your digestion? When ingested, psyllium swells in the intestine and forms a mucus, a gelatinous substance that affects digestion and metabolism. As the psyllium travels through the body, it cleanses at the same time. This creates a favorable breeding ground for beneficial digestive bacteria.

Lose weight with psyllium. The fibers reach the colon without being chemically broken down or absorbed in the small intestine, while giving a feeling of satiety.

Natural solution for constipation. It creates a gelatinous gel in the stomach that travels through digestive tract, binding the remnants. The gel stimulates intestinal peristalsis, making the stool softer and thus much easier to excrete.

Cook with psyllium. Due to the gelatin produced by soluble fiber, psyllium is very useful in cuisine. Due to its gelatinous structure, it can be used to prepare various jellies made from fruits and berries. In small quantities, it is also great for making raw cakes, thickening fillings that are too runny. It can be mixed into drinks and fruit purees or used in soups, stews, vegetable purees or even in meatloaf instead of bread or breadcrumbs.

Psyllium is also great in baking. It is a common ingredient in gluten-free baking, because it forms a gel when combined with a liquid, giving the baked goods a better texture, light crumb, more moisture and a less crumbly texture. It is excellent in cakes, pastries, pancakes, bread, pizza and pasta doughs.

Using organic psyllium

Mix 1-2 teaspoons with water and drink a few minutes before a meal. You can pre-soak it in water, allowing it to swell (up to 30 minutes) and add to yogurt, cereal and smoothies.

• For better digestion: In the morning, mix 1-2 teaspoons with 250ml water in allow for the husks to swell. Drink on an empty stomach.
• Psyllium for weight loss: Mix with water and drink half an hour before a meal. The fiber will expand in your stomach, making you feel full. This way you will consume less food, making it easier to lose weight. But watch out! As the fiber will expand in your stomach, you need to drink a lot of liquids. During the day, drink at least 6 to 8 glasses of water or other liquids. For better results, drink mineral water and probiotics at least half an hour before a meal.
• For baking: Adjust the amount of psyllium according to the type of dough. For bread and pizza, add up to 10g of psyllium per 500g of flour (1 tsp per 1 cup of flour), while cakes, muffins and cookies require only a half of this amount.
