New fibre product for drinking

Husk®fibre is a new dietary supplement from HUSK PRODUCTS consisting of pulverized Psyllium husks with an added fresh flavour of blackcurrant or lemon. The powder is to be dissolved in a glass of water and taken immediately after.

Husk®fibre can be used as a fibre supplement on an everyday basis when your daily fibre intake is insufficient.

Husk®fibre will be available for purchase in Denmark by the end of August at pharmacies, in Matas, in health shops and convenience stores.

Should you wish to try Husk®fibre, you can order a free sample under the menu option "Order". The sample consists of two sachets, one sachets of each flavour.

 

How to take Husk®fibre

Stir in the powder in a glass of water (1.5 dl) and drink immediately after. Then drink an additional glass of water.

Recommended daily dosage

Adults and children over 12 years of age:

2 teaspoons (6 gram) once or twice a day

Children age 6-12 years:

1 teaspoon (3 gram) once or twice a day

Daily dosage should not be exceeded.

Important

It is important that the powder is ingested with the stated amount of fluid. Husk®fibre absorbs fluid and forms a gel-like mass that provides the intestines something to work with and helps increase the intestinal movements (peristalsis). Too little fluid can cause constipation.

Husk®fibre reduces the transit time in the intestines and may affect the absorption of other medication. Husk®fibre should therefore be taken one hour before or after you take other medication.

Husk®fibre can cause discomfort in form of increased flatulence. The discomfort will typically pass after a few days.

Should only be used during pregnancy or for children under 6 years of age after instruction from your general practitioner or the health visitor.

The effect of Husk®fibre is noticeable after a few days use and is non-addictive. Husk®fibre should not replace a varied diet.

Storage

Husk®fibre should be stored dry and out of reach of children.
