Psylliumhusk longterm use lead exposure

2022-08-27 14:15:46
Hi doctors, Daily one table spoon psyllium husk consumption causes lead exposure in long term ? Every one is saying no side effects with psyllium husk but suggesting other alternatives. May I know why ? I see people suing more than 9 years still no issues with them .

Hi. Husk is a natural form of high fibre supplement.. Research says that taking psyllium husk will help to decrease insulin resistance. Hence if u take it daily there is no side effects.
