About This Product
Psyllium Isabgol
Psyllium (Plantago ovata), known as Isabgol in India, is the world's leading source of soluble dietary fibre. India produces and exports over 85% of global psyllium supply, with Gujarat being the primary growing region. The husk of the psyllium seed forms a viscous gel in water — this high swelling factor (40+ ml/g) is the key quality parameter for pharmaceutical and food applications.
PAX Herbal supplies psyllium husk and psyllium seeds of the highest purity. Both conventional and USDA organic certified grades are available. Our psyllium husk is tested for swelling factor, purity, moisture and microbial contamination. COA is issued per batch.
We supply to pharmaceutical companies (laxative formulations), dietary supplement brands (fibre supplements), functional food manufacturers and cosmetics companies across Europe, North America, Japan and the Middle East.
