Product Information

But it's made a massive difference and he suffers far fewer flare-ups, and when he does get them (because there's so many shifting and changing food items that sets off the IBS), they're now manageable, sometimes even mild. However as the psyllium powder in Lepicol is not soluble but water retentive, it does not actually dissolve when mixed with liquid but slowly creates a 'gel' like substance. Most people therefore, find the powder easier to take on a daily basis but the capsules can be useful when travelling. Very gentle on the colon and easy to take - don't forget to drink plenty of liquid with it though as that helps it to digest properly. Which if you've tried every thing possible like me, you'll know some laxatives on the market can give you excruciating stabbing stomach pains.

I'm gonna be honest, it has a a bit of a strange taste but as long as you drink fruit juice with it you can't notice.Since then I've taken it as more of a shot mixed with about 200ml of water, and then flushed down with nearly a pint of water, and having my shake separately afterwards. Lepicol is a three-in-one combination of gentle psyllium husk fibre supplement, live bacterial cultures and probiotics. It has worked wonders for my health and any problems I've had with my stomach is in the past thanks to Lepicol. The first time, I added it to my usual protein shake, but it changed the texture of the shake making it far less enjoyable.

The taste was okay for me, as I'm used to drinking 'woody' teas, which I'd compare the Lepicol flavor to. Clearly most people are now aware of the need to take in more fibre, particularly if you have sluggish bowels and for this many rely on fibre in their cereals. However, due to the psyllium husk content the powder will cause your food to thicken fairly quickly.We would, therefore, recommend including more liquid than normal and consuming the bowl within 5-10 minutes. I was introduced to Lepicol original approx 12 months ago after having suffered from constipated IBS and bloating for many years. All the Lepicol products have been approved by the Vegetarian Society except for the Lepicol Whole Psyllium Husk - 180 Gelatin Capsules.
