Title:Great unsweetened psyllium!

Date:August 20, 2011

"Do you know how hard it is to find unsweetened psyllium? It is impossible other than at a health food store. That is why I am so happy to be to find just what I need at Swanson, as usual. Personally I take a serving of psyllium once or twice a day by adding it to water sweetened with stevia. So easy! I will definitely order it again."

Title:Works Well

Date:August 4, 2011

"I used this along with Yerba Prima
Great Plains Bentonite Detox and found it it be wonderfully effective in improving the health & consistency of BM's. The taste, while not really pleasing, is not bad. I mix it in water with the bentonite and let the psyllium expand before drinking. I then have a second glass of water to ensure that I have drunk an adequate amount in the morning before breakfast. This combination was one of the most effective supplements I have tried for any reason with nearly immediate results forthcoming the following day."

Title:fresh taste

Date:December 4, 2010

"I like the fact that I'm not putting artificial sweeteners or sugar in my body every day in order to take a regular fiber supplement. This powder is finely milled, and tastes very fresh and neutral. It is a bit more difficult to dissolve than powders with sweeteners, but I've found that if I give it a stir, wait 20 seconds or so, and then stir again, it dissolves easily. I much prefer the size of the container over store brands' huge tank. Works as expected; great for an everyday fiber."

Title:Worst Swanson Product!!!

Date:March 28, 2010

"We have used Swanson products and been very satisfied for many years. They have given a very good value for the money. So, we ordered 3 of the Swanson Premium Psyllium Husk with complete confidence. To say I was disappointed would be an understatement - it is the worst Swanson product we ever used. We will go back to Now psyllium."

Title:Best quality I've purchased....

Date:October 14, 2009

"I have been purchasing Psyllium Husk from other sources and always just choked the stuff down either in my yogurt or my whey protein drink and sometimes just in water if I was in a hurry and it was always chewy and gritty in texture. So I had ran out and decided to try Swanson's brand and to my surprise it came in a much smaller container and it was very very fine. This is now my favorite Psyllium Husk. It makes my whey protein drinks taste like milk shakes, I can't really tell when I put it in my yogurt either. It has a nice little scoop included and I have 2 of them daily. Really like this product and will continue to purchase. Thank you."

Title:Needs to be refined further!

Date:September 2, 2009

"Swanson really needs to refine this product into a finer powder consistency. This product is very sandy/gritty. This product is very affective though. I think I will stick with NOW Foods or Organic India as an alternative, for a extra few cents."

Title:Not Impressed

Date:July 28, 2009

"The other reviewers seemed to LOVE this product, and I normally really like nearly ALL of Swanson's products, however I did not care for this product. Perhaps the others used it for different reasons.

Since this product is finely milled, I felt as if I was ingesting fine, powdered sand. It was gritty. I normally use psyllim from a large chain-store retailer, and the psyllium is light, "husky" and flaky. I use it primarily in my smoothies and I prefer that. No grit. (Sorry Swanson). 'Just a matter of preference."

Date:January 1, 2009

"So glad you asked for my opinion on the psyillium Husk. I stand willing & ready to tell everyone that it is a great product. for the past 2 years, I've ordered one of the most expensive Colon Cleansers on the market, but never again. I've discovered that if you use the psyllium husk as directed , and 2 cascara sagrada caps two times per day, you will get just as good a cleansing . So, Swanson, you rock ! Please, keep up the good work
This christiangirl is always in your corner.
God Bless"
