How to choose psyllium husk

Compare whole husk and ground psyllium within the form your recipe or product instructions require. Plain husk, flavored drink mixes and fiber snacks are different products, so check the full list before comparing amounts.

Follow the package’s liquid and mixing directions, including any medication or swallowing precautions. A serving of powder is not necessarily the same weight as a serving of whole husk; compare the labeled fiber amount and directions.
