What it is
Psyllium fiber comes from the seeds and husks of the Plantago ovata plant. The outer coating of the seeds is processed to create a soluble fiber powder. It is often used as a dietary fiber supplement.
Why it's used
Manufacturers add psyllium fiber to foods to increase their fiber content. It can also act as a binder and thickener. It is found in baked goods, cereals, and some pasta products.
Health notes
Psyllium is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a dietary fiber. It is a source of soluble fiber, which may help support digestive health. Regulatory bodies like EFSA have evaluated psyllium and noted its fiber properties. Studies suggest it can help promote regularity and may contribute to healthy cholesterol levels when consumed as part of a balanced diet.
Allergen info
Psyllium is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
