A Soluble fibre Used as a gentle bulk-forming laxative. Easily passed through the digestive system without being completely broken down or absorbed.
Constipation is a common problem which can be caused by a number of things. Not eating enough fiber or not drinking enough fluid can cause constipation. Some conditions (such as pregnancy) can cause constipation, as can a lack of exercise or movement (such as being ill in bed) and some medicines.
Often, increasing the amount of bran in your diet and drinking plenty of water each day can effectively prevent or relieve constipation. You will have been recommended psyllium husk (also known as ispaghula husk) to help relieve constipation if you cannot increase the amount of bran in your diet, or if this is insufficient. Psyllium husk, a laxative, works by increasing the bulk of your stools, which encourages your bowels to move the stools through your digestive system, which in turn relieves constipation.
Products containing psyllium husk are available on prescription, and can also be bought without a prescription at pharmacies and other retail outlets. Some combination products contain psyllium husk as an ingredient.
