Psyllium Seeds are processed to remove the outer coating of the seed to get the Husk. Psyllium Husk contains about 70% soluble fiber and 30% insoluble fiber. Psyllium husk has approximately 71 grams of fiber for a third of a cup compared to 5 grams of fiber from the same cup of Oat Bran.
This white fibrous material derived from psyllium seeds is used in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and food products industries.
