But what is actually behind it? Strictly speaking, the miracle cure is the seed husks of the so-called Plantago ovata. This plantain species is related to the ribwort plantain, which is also known as a medicinal plant in this country, and the beach plantain.<\/p>\n<p>Originally, Plantago ovata comes from India and Pakistan, which is why the seeds are often sold as \"Indian psyllium\". The psyllium seeds or their husks get their name from the two-fan cover capsule with its elliptical seeds, which visually resemble fleas.<\/p>\n<h2>What do psyllium husks do?<\/h2>\n<p>Psyllium husks have the property of swelling strongly on contact with water. In this process, the outer layer of long-chain sugar molecules binds a lot of water, causing the hulls to multiply their volume. In contrast to whole psyllium seeds, whose volume increases ninefold on contact with liquid, the swelling index of the hulls is 40.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the fiber content of psyllium husks is significantly higher than that of psyllium seeds. At the same time, a kind of mucilage is formed when the husks swell. The latter forms a protective layer on the mucous membranes of the intestinal wall and can thus prevent irritation, among other things.<\/p>\n<h2>What are the benefits of psyllium husks?<\/h2>\n<p>Due to the unique combination of a high swelling capacity, the high fiber content and the secretion of the protective mucus, psyllium husks are considered a popular household remedy for all kinds of complaints in the gastrointestinal tract. For example, the fiber they contain serves as food for the bacteria in the intestines, which can contribute to maintaining the health of the intestinal flora.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the secreted mucus not only prevents mucosal irritation, but is also said to help bind harmful substances. Moreover, the use of psyllium husks in intestinal complaints such as diarrhea can help to firm the stool. In turn, psyllium husks are also very popular for constipation. Here, the swelling increases the volume of the stool and can thus help to promote the natural movement of the bowels.<\/p>\n<p>Since the psyllium seeds swell up strongly, you need to drink a lot of liquid throughout the day. Two to three liters should be enough for the seeds to have an optimal effect.<\/p>\n<p>Caution: Use for chronic diseases<br \/>\nBefore taking psyllium seeds for a chronic illness, you should always consult your doctor to rule out any interactions with medication.<\/p>\n<div class=\"row row-collapse row-full-width\"  id=\"row-164292133\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1565021234\" class=\"col medium-4 large-4\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\n  \n    <div class=\"row large-columns-1 medium-columns- small-columns- row-small slider row-slider slider-nav-reveal slider-nav-push\"  data-flickity-options='{&quot;imagesLoaded&quot;: true, &quot;groupCells&quot;: &quot;100%&quot;, &quot;dragThreshold&quot; : 5, &quot;cellAlign&quot;: &quot;left&quot;,&quot;wrapAround&quot;: true,&quot;prevNextButtons&quot;: true,&quot;percentPosition&quot;: true,&quot;pageDots&quot;: false, &quot;rightToLeft&quot;: false, &quot;autoPlay&quot; : false}' >\n\n  \n\t     <div class=\"col\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"badge-container absolute left top z-1\">\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"product-small box has-hover box-normal box-text-bottom\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"box-image\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/fitnfemale.com\/en\/product-3\/biotics-supermix\/\" aria-label=\"Biotics Supermix\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"247\" height=\"296\" src=\"https:\/\/fitnfemale.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/biotics-supermix-247x296.jpg\" class=\"show-on-hover absolute fill hide-for-small back-image\" alt=\"Alternative view of Biotics Supermix\" aria-hidden=\"true\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"247\" height=\"296\" src=\"https:\/\/fitnfemale.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/biotics-supermix-25-247x296.jpg\" class=\"attachment-woocommerce_thumbnail size-woocommerce_thumbnail\" alt=\"Biotics supermix 25\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"image-tools top right show-on-hover\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"image-tools grid-tools text-center hide-for-small bottom hover-slide-in show-on-hover\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"box-text text-center\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"title-wrapper\"><p class=\"name product-title woocommerce-loop-product__title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/fitnfemale.com\/en\/product-3\/biotics-supermix\/\" class=\"woocommerce-LoopProduct-link woocommerce-loop-product__link\">Biotics Supermix<\/a><\/p><\/div><div class=\"price-wrapper\">\n\t<span class=\"price\"><span class=\"wcpbc-price wcpbc-price-540344\" data-product-id=\"540344\"><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-amount amount\"><bdi><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-currencySymbol\">\u20ac<\/span>\u00a032.90<\/bdi><\/span> <small class=\"woocommerce-price-suffix\">incl.
