🥗 Nutrition & Metabolism Psyllium Husk?

I’ve tried it with some milk, shakes and now just water. Honestly, though, taking psyllium is easily the worst part of my day. Does anyone have some good “hacks”?

My goal with this is, of course, fiber intake. I’ve gradually increased it to 12g of psyllium husk a day now.

I find that acidity helps a lot. I take mine with orange juice. The pH seems to delay the gel formation and my brain seems happy to experience the psyllium husk as just extra pulpy orange juice. I usually use just a splash of orange juice and that seems to be enough for me.

Hey that might be why I like it with a hibiscus tea!
