Yerba PrimaPsyllium Husks, 180 Veg Capsules (625mg) - Vegan, Non-GMO, Gluten Free, Colon Cleanser, Daily Fiber Supplement for Gut Health & Regularity

This product in pills instead of powder, works wonderfully for me...

Product was exactly as described.

Very easy today and worked well

Fiber really should be part of everyone's health plan. Sadly most people are seriously lacking fiber in their diet. So it really helps to get it in other ways that the body can utilize.I especially like to use it when I eat things like carbs and sugary items. It helps a bit to pull things through my system more efficiently. It binds with fats and sugar molecules as it travels through our digestive system. This can reduce the calories that get absorbed.It also helps to stabilize blood sugars so it can be a significant benefit in battling diabetes.There are many other benefits to fiber but it is always best to do your own homework to learn how to keep yourself healthy.

Costco sells Kirkland Signature Fiber Capsules (psyllium husk capsules), Walmart sells Equate Fiber Therapy (psyllium husk capsules), and Sam's Club sells Member's Mark Fiber Capsules (psyllium husk capsules). The prices are all very competitive. The size of each capsule is exactly the same on these other 3 brands and on Yerba Prima Psyllium Husks. However, each Yerba Prima veg capsule contains 625mg of psyllium while the other 3 brands contain 500mg or 520mg of psyllium in each capsule. If you try to squish a Yerba Prima capsule, it doesn't collapse as much as when trying to squish the capsule of any of these other 3 brands. This means that Yerba Prima has put more psyllium into each capsule than its 3 competitors without increasing the size of each capsule.

The second study says that psyllium users are less likely to develop colorectal cancer:

These psyllium husk capsules are more convenient than powder. I take them when away from home. They can be taken with meals and do not need to be dissolved in liquid. They keep me regular as advertised as long as I take the recommended dose of four capsules three times a day, which is not so convenient. Four capsules twice a day also works but to a lesser degree. Your mileage may vary

Been using these for years on and off. If you take them every day three times a day for two weeks you will have a healthy number two. Give them time.

I find that fiber supplements help me a ton as I move toward healthier eating. I was using some brand name products, and they worked well, but were expensive. Store brands helped with the price, but often just didn't seem to work as well for me as some had smaller dosages.Yerba's fiber works just as well as the name brands in the drugstore, but they are much less expensive. This is both because each bottle costs less, and because each capsule has slightly more psyllium husk in it (625mg vs. 500mg in most over-the-counter brands). So you need fewer capsules per dose, while the overall bottle cost is still less. It's the best of both worlds for me and a very good value for the money.
