Fiber Supplements

Laxatives are often underestimated for their positive affect on a person's health, mainly because the topic of waste elimination is embarrassing to many people and avoided. However, years of improper elimination of toxins and waste from the body can cause unpleasant side effects such as fatigue, headaches, aches & pains, and more! We live in a culture filled with products loaded with tasty, but toxic ingredients. Those toxins build up fast! Many laxatives cause bowel movements, but that does not guarantee proper colon cleansing. Newport Flavours Organic Naturlax Psyllium is an all-natural, gentle laxative made from organic psyllium husks. Psyllium has been used for intestinal health in Europe for centuries. It has only recently gained popularity in the United States. Psyllium is normally mixed in water or juice. Once inside your body, it forms a comfortable, soft, gel-like substance that quickly washes through the body, cleaning it thoroughly and gently. As it passes through your system, it softens stool and attracts water, enabling the entire process to flow smoothly. It normally does not cause the excessive gas and bloating commonly associated with other fiber supplements. The health benefits do not stop at proper waste elimination. Psyllium has been studied and found to be beneficial for other related issues, including constipation, diarrhea, IBS, IBD and hemorrhoids. Newport Flavours Organic Psyllium can also assist people struggling with obesity by reducing hunger cravings. Organic Psyllium husks contains soluble fibers that can help lower cholesterol when added to a low-fat, low-cholesterol diet. Studies show psyllium to be very effective in lowering unwanted LDL, as well as total cholesterol levels. This is a major benefit for people struggling with high cholesterol (hypercholesterolemia) and those at increased risk for developing hypercholesterolemia, such as people with type 2 diabetes. Over 17,000,000 Americans are estimated to have diabetes, and many more are at risk for developing it. Studies suggest high-fiber diets combining psyllium may improve cholesterol and triglyceride levels in diabetics. Such diets may also help prevent diabetes in people at risk for the disease. Studies also suggest diets high in fiber, such as those including psyllium, may help lower high blood pressure, decrease the risk of heart disease, reduce the risk of cancer and promote overall health. The suggested use for adults and children over 12 is 1 tablespoon - 1 to 3 times daily. For children 6 -12, the suggested use is 1 teaspoon - 1 to 3 times daily. Start by taking 1 serving each day. Gradually increase to 3 servings per day IF NEEDED. Stir the psyllium serving into at least 8 ounces (a regular glass) of liquid. Psyllium works well with water, juice, milk, and soy/rice drinks. Drinking additional liquids may be helpful. If any gas or bloating occurs, reduce the amount you consume until your system has adjusted.
