Digestive Difficulties
Psyllium has been proven to relieve constipation, according to the University of Maryland Medical Center, or UMMC. When it comes into contact with water, psyllium swells into a gelatinous mass that pushes stool through the digestive tract. This same process also makes it useful to treat mild to moderate diarrhea, because psyllium soaks up excess water from the digestive tract, which hardens diarrhea and makes it slower to pass. Laxatives like psyllium can be helpful if you have hemorrhoids. However, studies have shown mixed results for people with irritable bowel syndrome or inflammatory bowel diseases like ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease. If you have any of these diseases, consult your doctor before using psyllium.
High Cholesterol
Soluble fiber, the type contained in psyllium, can help lower cholesterol, according to the UMMC. Psyllium appears to lower both total cholesterol as well as LDL or bad cholesterol, which might reduce the risk of heart disease. When combined with a low-fat diet or cholesterol-lowering drugs, psyllium appears to boost the benefit of either of these approaches to lowering cholesterol.
Other Uses
Because it is a good source of fiber, psyllium is used for a number of other conditions for which there is not enough scientific evidence to know whether it really works or not, according to the UMMC. In general, though, nutritionists agree that it is better to get fiber from whole grains, fruits and vegetables, which contain a host of other helpful nutrients, than it is to take a supplement, according to the American Cancer Society. After some early and optimistic studies, many people began taking psyllium to protect against colon cancer. But more recent, better-designed research has found little benefit to this. Other unproven uses of psyllium are as treatments for diabetes, high blood pressure and obesity.

Psyllium husk is a common, high-fiber laxative made from the seeds of a shrub. It’s also used to treat a number of conditions, such as high cholesterol and colon cancer, which may benefit from a high-fiber diet; however, some of these uses do not have proven benefits. Psyllium does cause some side effects, so talk to your doctor before taking it.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
A: Generally you boil 20g of tea/herb with 2L. of water. The ratio does not matter. However, it is recommended that you control the
saturation of the tea (how strong it is) depending on your personal
preference and body condition.
A: It depends on the tea/herb.
For leaves: boil for 15~20 min.
For hard fruits, roots, and stems: If you soak the tea/herb in water
for 1~2 hours before boiling, you can save time in boiling, and also
get a deeper flavor than without soaking.
A: Currently, what is listed on the site is what we mostly deal with in
retail stores. However, if there is a certain tea/herb that you wish to
get, you can send an email to info@leafnflower.com. or 844-344-0622.
Then, we may offer a price for obtaining the tea/herb, answer questions, and even offer purchase.
A: Yes, you can combine 5~10g of teas/herbs that you already have with Leafnflower.com's teas/herbs.
Although brewing one tea/herb is still good, combining 2~3 teas/herbs helps bring out
the remedial effects of the tea/herbs better than brewing just one tea/herb. However, most tea/herbs contain natural toxins,
and it is recommended that you boil 1~2 pieces of liquorice root along with the tea/herb to remove the toxin.
