NOW Foods Supplements, Psyllium Husk Caps 500 mg, Non-GMO Project Verified, Natural Soluble Fiber, Intestinal Health*, 500 Veg Capsules

Fiber is such an important part of our diets, and like many Americans, I know I don’t get enough. I was looking for an easy way to supplement without having to drink gritty powders — those make me gag. These capsules are the perfect solution.They’re easy to take, and I keep a bottle both at home and at work. I typically take between 4–12 a day, adjusting based on how my body feels. If I need help “moving things along,” I’ll take a bit more. On lighter days, I dial it back.The pill size is totally manageable — roughly the length of a paperclip — and I’ve had no issues swallowing them. These have definitely become a staple in my routine.

I hate dealing with the loose psyllium so this is a great alternative. I will say you need to take a LOT of pills per day to meet the recommended intake (12 a day for at least 6 grams), but I don't have a problem splitting it up over the course of a day.

These are perfect for me. I am not the greatest at incorporating fiber into my diet so these came in handy. I have been having digestive issues for a long time now and these seemed to have fixed it. I must say I take two in the morning and I can feel it 10 minutes after taking them. I am gassy and some stomach discomfort but I feel as though that is normal seeing as I rarely get any fiber. I went from using the restroom once every five days to once a day. These are perfect if you are having digestive trouble and can’t seem to get enough fiber in your diet. Also, pills are easy to swallow and you can go at your own tolerance level. Start slow and work your way up.

This is a huge bottle. My only complaint (as with most items like this) is the amount you have to take per day in order to see the results you are looking for. So while it is a big bottle, you will go through these quicker than you might think you would. Item works great though and have had no issues with them.

Only been taking these for 5 days and already noticing a huge differencePros:2-3 minute bathroom trips instead of 10-15 minutesEverything seems much cleaner without changing my dietMore regularFair price for the number of capsulesNeeds to be taken with at least 8oz water, preferably more, so I'm staying more hydratedCons:Capsules are on the larger side (but manageable), and taking 9 a day is a lot. The good thing is even when I miss a dose and just take 6 a day, I still feel the results

I much prefer the capsules to the loose powder. Works just as well as the big name brand.

Raw Cat Food Diet Recipe Made WITH Real Bones2 kg [4.4 pounds] raw muscle meat with bones (chicken thighs and drumsticks or, better, a whole carcass of rabbit or chicken amounting to 2 kg; if you don't use a whole carcass, opt for dark meat like thighs and drumsticks from chicken or turkey and remove/don't use 20 to 25 percent of the bone; if using whole rabbit, which has a higher bone-to-meat ratio than chicken, dilute the extra bone by adding another 20 to 25 percent of plain muscle meat and skin and fat from rabbit, chicken, or turkey)400 grams [14 oz] raw heart (best not to use use beef heart; if no heart is available, substitute with 4000 mg Taurine)200 grams [7 oz] raw liver (don't use beef liver; if you can't find appropriate liver, you can substitute 40,000 IU of Vitamin A and 1600 IU of Vitamin D--but try to use real liver rather than substitutes)NOTE: If you cannot find the heart or liver and decide to substitute with the Taurine/Vitamin A and D, then remember to REPLACE the missing amount of organ meat with the equivalent amount of muscle meat. In other words, if you cannot find heart, you add another 400 grams of the meat/bones. If you can't find the liver, add another 200 grams of meat/bone.16 oz [2 cups] water4 raw egg yolks (use eggs from free-range, antibiotic-free chickens if you can)***4 capsules raw glandular supplement, such as, for example, multigland supplement by Immoplex.4000 mg salmon oil (see note at bottom of recipe*)800 IU Vitamin E ("dry E" works well)200 mg Vitamin B-50 complex (i.e., four capsules of B-50)1.5 tsp. Lite salt (with iodine)(optional: 4 tsp. psyllium husk powder (8 tsp. if using whole psyllium husks; see note at bottom of recipe**)NOTE: If you will not be using the food immediately and freezing for more than a week or two, toss in 4000 mg of additional Taurine to make up for what may get lost during storage. It is also not a bad idea to sprinkle extra Taurine from a capsule on the food as you're serving it two or three times a week, just to be certain your cat is getting plenty of this critical amino acid.1. Remove about half of the skin from the muscle meat. Chunk up (i.e., cut) as much of the muscle meat (minus most of the skin if using chicken or turkey, but leave skin on if using rabbit) as you can stand into bite-sized (nickel-sized, approximately) pieces. Save the chunked meat for later. Do not grind it.2. Grind the raw liver, any skin, raw meaty bones, and raw heart. Once ground, stir this meat/bone mixture well and return to refrigerator.3. Fill a bowl with 2 cups of water and whisk everything (non-meat) except the psyllium. If you had to replace liver with Vitamin A/D or replace heart with Taurine, add the substitutes now. Add psyllium at the end -- if you're using it -- and mix well. Finally, put the three mixtures together--the "supplement slurry" that you have just mixed, the ground up meat/bone/organs, and the chunks of meat that you cut up by hand. Portion into containers and freeze.Don't overfill the containers. The food expands when frozen and you don't want lids popping off. Thaw as you go. The food shouldn't be left thawed in the refrigerator more than 48 hours before serving. To serve, portion into a 'zipper baggie' and warm under hot water in the sink. NEVER microwave the food. Cats like their food at something approximating "mouse body temperature."*Every two or three days, I suggest sprinkling a few drops of fresh salmon oil from a newly-opened capsule on to the cats' food. The Essential Fatty Acids in salmon oil are extremely fragile, and since we do not know exactly how much gets lost during freezing, I think it's wise to use a bit of fresh salmon oil directly on the food a few times a week. Most cats love the flavor.**Not all cats require additional fiber (psyllium) in their diet. If your cat has been eating low-quality commercial food for several years, especially dry food, she may have lost bowel elasticity and may benefit from the extra fiber. As a general rule, I recommend using psyllium when an adult cat first gets raw food. I rarely add much psyllium to my adult cats' diet. Bear in mind that some cats seem to get constipated without additional fiber, whereas other cats seem to get constipated if they get too much fiber. Each cat is unique, and you'll have to judge what works best for your cat.***If you don't want to waste the egg whites and don't feel like making an angel food cake, poach them, grind them, and throw them in with the food. A nice phosphorus-free source of protein.
