A balanced lifestyle starts with a healthy foundation from within. In our busy, modern lives, a balanced diet sometimes falls by the wayside, which can lead to a less comfortable feeling in the abdomen or an unbalanced digestion. When your body needs extra support, natural fibres offer a mild and responsible solution. Mattisson Organic Psyllium Fibre Bio is carefully formulated to support your daily routine in a natural way. These organic fibres offer your body the daily support it deserves, so that you can go through the day feeling calm and vital.
Key benefits
- Rich in natural fibre: Consists of more than 80% non-digestible fibre, which contributes to the daily fibre needs of the whole family.
- Mild effect on the intestines: Is fermented to a lesser extent by the intestinal flora, so the chance of bloating or flatulence is minimal.
- Supports cholesterol levels: Psyllium fibre naturally contributes to maintaining a responsible cholesterol level (evaluation of health claims is ongoing).
- Versatile binding agent: Excellent for use as a gluten-free binding agent in homemade bread to improve structure and elasticity.
How it works
Psyllium, also known as flea seed, comes from the seed husks of the Plantago ovata plant. These organic fibres have the unique property that they can absorb up to ten times their own dry weight in moisture. As soon as the fibres come into contact with water, they form a soft, gel-like substance. Unlike some other fibre sources, psyllium fibre ferments very slowly in the intestines. This ensures an extremely mild influence on the digestive system, without the discomfort of an unsettled stomach. Integrating these fibres into your daily routine is a simple step towards a conscious and vital lifestyle.

Ingredients
Organic Psyllium (Plantago ovata, seed husk)
Usage & Dosage
Mix 1 to 2 teaspoons (2-4 g) once a day with water, yoghurt or fruit juice. Preferably take this before a meal. Drink the mixture immediately, because psyllium absorbs a lot of moisture quickly. When using psyllium, always ensure sufficient fluid intake, both immediately when taking it and throughout the rest of the day. Try to drink at least 1.5 to 2 litres of water per day to prevent clumping in the intestines.
