When I first started coming to this board psyllium husk powder was recommended to me for constipation...I went out and bought a huge jar of it. The next day I ate my breakfast and about an hour later mixed up my glas off the husks...sucked it down as fast as I could - but it was thick and gritty and slimy - and I promptly threw up all my breakfast! Needless to say I threw the powder away. Now I take the pills and they are not THAT much more expensive than the husks and they have worked fine. I started with one a day and worked up from there to find a "comfortable" amount. Anyway...I don't recommend the powder - it's really gross.
