Benefits of Psyllium for Constipation and Diarrhea

Psyllium is mainly used as a dietary fiber, which is not absorbed by the small intestine.

Although its main use has been as a laxative, it is more appropriately termed a true dietary fiber and as such can help reduce the symptoms of both constipation and mild diarrhea.
