What is the best time to take psyllium husk ?? right after meal or before on empty stomach for irritable bowel syndrome
It is best to take before meal. About half hour before meal. It helps to bind with the food you are taking. It is useful in both constipation and loose motion. People have a wrong notion that it can only be used in loose motions.
Husk usually binds with stool and makes a mass that can easily be passed on. So it makes a bulk in loose motion as well as in constipation giving easy and smooth fecal discharge.
