I recommend psyllium regularly for bowel health, IBS and constipation and it's great to see this recent study showed it's effectiveness for IBS. They used a pretty high daily dose though. The best method is to start small and gradually increase the dose until you reach effectiveness. I also like it in capsules, as the loose fiber can become pretty mucilaginous when mixed with water and hard to get down. Check out the article here in the LA Times http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/booster_shots/2009/08/its-soluble-fiber-not-wheat-bran-or-irritable-bowel.html
Do you have any experience using psyllium? Post a comment and let us know.
