If you’ve ever heard of Metamucil, that’s just psyllium husk in a powder form and it’s not just for old people. Adding some of this to your daily routine has a ton of benefits. I tried to write a few sentences explaining the benefits but they all turn out like shit.
Make sure you take it a couple hours before or a couple hours after you take any meds. It can encapsulate the meds before they’re absorbed into your body.
Well that’s a pain in the ass, isn’t it?
I believe it though. Researchers out there have shown that even things like time of day can make a HUGE difference in the measurable results of different remedies and medicines. It’s inconvenient as shit for those of us who would like to wake up, chug a handful of pills, and get on with our day.
Sorry for the pedantry but time of day is a something of a misnomer.
Many people live in weird and varied schedules.
For those who might need to be told, what time it is is irrelevant. It’s typically the amount of time before or after something else happens that is the relevant information here so consider how that affects you if you don’t live a typical morning to evening lifestyle.
And also learn what things you should and shouldn’t eat or consume any time you take medication. It can easily be something as simple as substituting something instead of completely changing your routines. Unfortunately that is a trial by error thing so not a good method to figure out problems you may have with meds
Good to know, thanks! Currently taking it with my multivitamin
I just eat a whole grains (brown rice, not white. 100% whole wheat etc) and plenty of fruits and vegetables that naturally contains fiber in addition to many other beneficial nutrients.
Your stool should be the consistency like toothpaste squeezing out of a tube. Mine is, albeit I go 2-3x a day , but I’ll take it!
Brushing my teeth tonight will be extra special now
You can get this in gummy form, its something ridiculous like only two gummy’s will give you your daily fibre intake. Do NOT take more than the directions say, my god
The pills are nonsense though. Like 5 horsepills for 1 serving. Not worth it.
This is what I figured coming from drinking the raw powder in water. I was adding quite a bit
I’ll have to try that. The capsules are no problem, the raw psyllium husk mixed with just water isn’t super pleasant
Haha, man, I love reading these expressions people are using to describe their massive shits in this entire thread.
Same
Oh believe me, I know about psyllium husk. Best shit of my entire life. The kind you genuinely have to resist the prideful urge to take a picture of.
100%
did I just get psyllium husk pilled
This is where I’m at right now. Used to quickly drink it mixed with water and that was a challenge at times
This is how I do it, yeah the first couple glasses were kinda weird but then once you’ve experienced it and know what to expect, it really isn’t bad at all.
Just drink it as quickly as humanly possible once it’s in the water
