What is psyllium husk?
Psyllium husk refers to the soluble fibre from the seed coats of Plantago ovata, sold as powder and capsules and in products such as Metamucil, taken for digestion and fullness. People search it to learn how to take it, compare brands and forms, and use it in recipes such as gluten-free bread and the viral "nature's Ozempic" fibre drinks. In practice, the buyers are adults focused on gut health, weight management and higher fibre intake. Fibre has become a social media wellness trend often called fibremaxxing. It is a repeat-purchase category with growing interest.
