Psylliumhusk longterm use lead exposure
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.

Gud evening there is as such no evidence of this thing found pls try to consult with doctor or dietician before following including any food items in diet routine. Psyllium husk one time can be taken after brushing in morning. Try to have a healthy diet.
