Psyllium Husks Fiber Powder - Used for gramsastrointestinal support, 10 oz,(Solgar) Overview.

Dietary fiber includes all food substances that our digestive enzymes cannot break down and utilize as energy. All fiber falls into two basic categories water-soluble and water-insoluble which are further divided into five subclasses: cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, pectin, and gum.

National food surveys reveal that the average American consumes only one-third of the fiber they need.
