Psyllium: What Are the Health Benefits?
This is an excellent article on taking psyllium for regular bowel movements and other benefits. The brand I like is Metamucil because it tastes okay, and I think it is the safest laxative to take. Phillips milk of magnesia helps some, but there is a problem with taking too much magnesium. It can cause bone deterioration. So, Metamucil is by far my best choice for getting enough fiber.
Psyllium also reportedly helps the heart and lowers cholesterol. Another study showed that just 5 grams of psyllium per day controlled diabetes. So, I highly recommend taking psyllium on a regular daily basis.
