Konsyl Psyllium Fiber Featured in Better Homes & Gardens

Konsyl Psyllium Fiber Featured in Better Homes & Gardens

National magazine features Konsyl as a top pick for protecting against heart disease.

Easton, MD (PRWEB) February 12, 2009

Konsyl psyllium fiber is recommended in the February 2009 issue of Better Homes & Gardens. In an article on heart health, Konsyl psyllium is recommended as a good source of the soluble fiber that can be used to help reduce cholesterol levels. The article was written by Registered Dietician Gale Maleskey.

Konsyl Original fiber supplement has the highest concentration of psyllium husk among leading brands. It contains 6 grams per teaspoonful. Konsyl Original is considered the best choice by many doctors and dieticians because it contains no sugars, artificial flavors, chemical sweeteners or fillers. It has also been notably recommended by TODAY show contributing nutritionist Joy Bauer to guard against high cholesterol.

Studies show 14 grams of psyllium seed husk per day, along with a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol have lowered blood total as well as LDL cholesterol levels.

In a value-conscious economy, Konsyl Original is a best buy. This supplement is 450 grams of pure psyllium husk. When compared to the large size container of the leading competitor, it offers more of the cholesterol-lowering ingredient. Competitors add artificial flavors, sugar substitutes and other fillers. For example, there are only 376 grams of psyllium in the "value size" of Pink Lemonade Metamucil®.
