Healthworks Psyllium Husk Powder Organic -16 Oz / 1 Lb - Raw - Certified Organic - Finely Ground Powder from India - Keto, Vegan & Non-GMO - Fiber SupportUSDA Organic

A holistic vet recommended psyllium husk powder to help a cat get a little needed fiber. Traditionally, vets recommended canned pumpkin. While some pets won't will eat the pumpkin, many don't. Pumpkin turns out to be more expensive and wasteful, because it's perishable and we would up throwing out most of a can. Psyllium husk powder is much easier to work with and we have not had problems with animals rejecting it.We have pets and we foster rescue animals. We use this psyllium husk powder for the few that need it. If you want to try it, I suggest you discuss it with a vet first to see if it is appropriate and if so, how much you can use. If a cat has symptoms of needing more fiber, that may suggest a medical problem.A little bit goes a long way. In our case, one kitty takes 1/8 teaspoon mixed in her dinner daily. For that cat, the vet had recommended starting at 1/8 teaspoon per day, and if that did not help, we could gradually increase the dose in small increments up to one teaspoon per day. Lucky cat and us--1/8 does the job. Another cat, that is petite actually takes 1/16 teaspoon daily.TIP: To measure this and other products, we bought tiny stainless measuring spoons that go down to 1/32 teaspoon on Amazon. They were very affordably priced.

This is very fine, which helps with the texture if you're drinking it. Mix with just a small amount of water first, then add more water as needed.You can also bake/ cook with it. I blend a tablespoon of this, one egg, one banana, and a dash of vanilla. Let it sit for 7ish minutes. Voila! Healthy and delicious pancakes.

There's no pleasant way to put this: I couldn't poop properly and I didn't understand why. I'm talking 20 minute sessions, several times a day, 4-5 flushes each. Googled "why can't I get my a** clean" and someone recommended Metamucil. Metamucil has sugar/maltodextrin which affects ketosis, so I opted for straight up organic psyllium husk instead, which is the main active ingredient in Metamucil.I've been taking this for two weeks and let me tell you: I'm living my best life now, folks. Perfect poops. Every. Single. Time. I've literally gotten so much time back, no more extra showers or "maintenance wipes," and I feel amazing. I've also seen accelerated weight loss. 2tsp in the morning mixed with cold water & Mio, 2tsp again in the evening. Flavor tastes like what you think husk would taste like, but the Mio masks quite well. Texture takes some getting used to, but it's not terrible. I do not recommend putting it in coffee; it makes for terrible flavor and texture.My life is forever changed. I will never stop taking this stuff.UPDATE: I'm on my third bag of this. Bag 1 was great, bag 3 is great, but bag 2 seemed like it wasn't ground finely enough. It was much more grainy & chunky than the other two bags, which made it's consumption unpleasant. I'm glad the third bag is as it should be. Still highly recommend the product.

I can't believe the manufacturer put "flavor" as a feature to rate... psyllium husk tastes like crap. it's awful. I take mine in OJ to mask the taste. Value for money is OK. I have purchased this twice: once it was great: very finely ground and it mixed great (I use a cocktail shaker and just shake the heck out of a tablespoon worth in OK) into a smooth consistency. The second time it didn't mix as well and I have lumps when I mix it... so it is a bit inconsistent. But it is a good price so I will most likely keep buying it. And as far is psyllium husk goes, it works great, makes you poop, and I strongly encourage embracing the benefits of a fiber diet.

I like that this powder is super fine, unlike others that are super grainy. It is well worth the money. The one very important tip I can give is follow the instructions exactly and drink immediately after stirring or shaking. Do not let it sit, Otherwise, it will thicken like quicksand and will not be drinkable without choking (or adding A LOT more water to it). The taste is very mild, which is natural. I drink it with water- not a sugary fruit juice. If you mix it in with juice, you won't taste it at all or very little, depending on your taste buds. I will likely buy this again when I finally run out of it. Due to the size, that will take a while, which I am happy about since it is a bit pricey (but worth it for purity and texture).

I use this every day usually in smoothies and it fills me up and keeps me regular, which was an issue on Keto. I feel as full from a small amount of the psyllium husk as if I ate a full steak meal! It's also low carb, which helps with Keto, and I made pan pizza with it (and eggs and salt) that was easy and came out pretty well, and I'm not a great cook.The product arrived in a timely manner, is fresh, and lasts (you only need a little because it expands) so that it's a good value for the price.

I've never reviewed anything on Amazon but, this is so horrible I had to warn others. I ordered this because the brand I normally order was out of stock. I've been using psyllium husk powder for years and it doesn't have an odor and tastes neutral as psyllium husk should. I'm not sure why this brand smells and tastes so horrible. The package says organic but also has a warning label that says this product can expose you to chemicals. That probably explains the horrible taste and odor. This is going in the trash because it's non-refundable.

Didn’t like the thick consistency
