   Good quality psyllium husk, for baking, `puddings` and volume meals
   I mainly use psyllium husk to add volume to my meals / baked goods and increase satiation without too many extra calories. I’m not on a weight loss journey, but I like more volume with my meals. NOW Foods is one of the best quality options for psyllium husks (although I slightly prefer the Bob’s Red Mill product).I already consume a lot of fiber in my diet, so I personally did not see a major difference in my digestion and bowel movement. But I do feel it helps a little with regularity and consistency.Usages-> Oatmeal / Porridge. If you like volume meals, psyllium husk is a great way to make a huge oatmeal or porridge bowl that will keep you satisfied for longer. I do personally think that regular husks work better than the powder, since it doesn’t change as much the consistency. I usually add it after cooking (or when I meal prep overnight oats), with additional liquid; I don’t like when I cook oats and psyllium together.-> Pancakes / Waffles / Omelettes. Added in the batter, psyllium husk adds volume, but also changes consistency. It will be more `sponge` like consistency, maybe not appealing for everyone. For pancakes and waffles I have used successfully both recipes that required specifically psyllium husks, and `regular` recipes in which I replaced flour with psyllium husk.-> Smoothies / Liquids / Gels. Psyllium husks mix very well in most liquids. You can make a simple tasteless gel just by mixing it with water and let it sit 3-5 minutes; or you can mix in with a little bit sweetener (Stevia, monk fruit, etc.), mix it with fruit juice, add it in smoothies and drink to make then thicker. It doesn’t work with nut beverages (cashew or almond milk).-> Baking. The way I can tell the NOW Foods psyllium husk is really good quality is the way it behaves in baked good; it doesn’t change color (other products add a purple hue) nor changes the taste (other products add a metallic taste). It works well combined both with regular wheat flour and gluten free flours (coconut, almond, tapioca, cassava, buckwheat), for large loaves of breads and small items like cupcakes and muffins. Psyllium husk definitely changes the consistency, it’s more moist and spongy. The results are better if you use a good recipe with tested ratios between flours, psyllium husk and liquid, especially for bread and if you like a nice crust. But for cupcakes and muffins I just add a tsp or tbsp of psyllium husk powder and adjust liquid until I get the desired consistency.Container: I recommend keeping the aluminium seal after opening the product, it helps reduce the static which might cause the fine powder to fly around.

   Does What It’s Supposed To Do
   This stuff tastes reeeeelly awful…BUT…it works very welll to regulate the digestive system, so 5 stars here. I flunked the cholesterol test at my recent checkup and read that psyllium husk powder along with lifestyle changes can get cholesterol levels down. So, to avoid going on medication, I am trying this. Maybe it would taste better in apple juice than it does in plain water? Anyway, good product and good price.

   Now Psyllium fiber- very effective and good
   Excellent fiber, really works great; I mix just one heaped spoon with 4% lactaid milk -no bad taste ; easy to swallow . Only issue is that you hav eto go >twice in the AM which could be a problem for those who have to leave home early.I will keep using it.

   It works but…
   I read a recipe that said you could add it to soups and stews to thicken. I added less than one teaspoon to a big pot of chili and ended up with a gallon of chili with the consistency of snot. I would not try that again! The easiest way for me to take this is to mix it quickly in small amounts. It has no real flavor and turns to gel on contact with water. It does work for its original purpose.

   Unexpected drop in quality
   I’ve used this product for almost 1 year. Usually product dissolves well which is why I liked it. Last ordered in June 2025 & this time it was if it repelled water. It left many clumps regardless of how vigorously it was mixed. Unpleasant. I can tolerate grainy (it IS fiber) but not clumpy or chunky. Other than this everything appeared the same as usual. I even double checked that I had the right product because it behaved so poorly. Anyone else notice this? Note: no change in effectiveness, appearance, taste, etc. (lot # 3402382)

   糖質を減らすとどうにもウンコが粘ついて感覚がよろしくないので快便のために購入。水溶性食物繊維だけだと出はよくなるけど、質的に粘りウンコ。便秘ではなかったので、出だけよくなってもしかたない。これを摂取すると麦飯をバクバク食べてた頃に近いのがメイクwできました。水溶性食物繊維だと利用しやすいものは他にもあるんだけど、非水溶性となるとこれくらい。あとはより食品的な小麦フスマとか、食品からとるかなので、食物繊維含有量が多くてサプリ扱いで摂取できるこれは便利です。反面、摂取はしづらく、水に溶かそうとしても盛大にダマになる、熱い汁物に入れると汁の粘りとわらび餅状の塊ができる。カレーにわらび餅状の塊があってもおいしくいただけますけど、カプセルで飲むのが一番手軽かな、と。カプセルで売ってるのは量の割に高いので、別に買った00号カプセルにつめて飲んでます。あと、プロテイン１スクープに大さじ1/2入れて、ホットケーキ生地くらいに水と混ぜてレンジでチンすると、蒸しパン状になります。そんなに美味くはないけど、ダイエットメニューとしては材料的に究極な食品ではないでしょうか。

    私はこれで長年苦しんでいた過敏性腸症候群が治りました。オブラートに包んで水などで飲むと、飲みやすいです。毎朝晩、食事のあとに小さじ1杯弱くらい服用しています。（これ以上量を増やすと便秘になります。）この商品はたくさん入っているのでコスパが良く、一個で1年はもちます。この商品がなくなってほしくないのと、過敏性腸症候群で悩んでいる方の検索に引っかかってもらえたらと思い、投稿しました。

    猫の便秘対策に購入しました。それまでは硬くパチンコ玉のような便しか出なかったのですが、本品を食事に混ぜてから2日目あたりで20cm級の大物がどーんと出るようになりました。処方された軟便剤よりはるかに強力です。量は体重1kgあたり0.3gにしました。おすすめです。
