psyllium is a plant fiber that is sold in natural food stores. Its all fiber so you won't digest any calories from it. They use it to make metamucil too!! BUt its cheaper to buy it in bulk at the health food store. If you buy it loose in a bag you'll have to mix it with alot of water usually 1 tsp to 1 -2 glasses of water. then drink more water after you've taken the mix. YOU must drink alot of water. The husks absorb alot of water and u don't want it blocking your intestianl tract. You can also buy the husks in capsules but its way more expensive. Let me know what you think!!
