Psyllium is a true dietary fiber, even though it is classified by some as a laxative or mucilaginous fiber, and is a convenient way to increase intake of dietary fiber because of its high mucilage content. This bulking agent swells considerably when added to liquid, which can help to support healthy gastrointestinal transit time. This bulking action and healthy transit time can play an important role in maintaining healthy gastrointestinal function.*

My dog has a very sensitive stomach. I found that giving her a tablespoon of psyllium husks once per day, with water, keeps her digestive system stable.

Tried for cholesterol
I used this as part of an attempt to lower LDL cholesterol. My numbers improved enormously, and this product was absolutely key. I am within optimal range now, but will use this off and on to make sure I don't drift back again. Very positive view of this one from me.
