Wait, I must keep facts exact. The original says "up to 40 times of water", so I'll keep it close to that.

Isabgul Spicy is a very effective herbal formulation of two mostly laxative medicinal herbs, Plantago ovata and Cassia angustifolia. Ispaghula can absorb up to 40 times of water. Sonapata acts as an inhibitor of water and electrolyte absorption from the large intestine, which increases the volume and pressure of the intestinal contents. As a result, it stimulates the peristaltic movement of the gut. In this way Ispaghula Husk + Sonapata helps regular bowel movement and relieves constipation.

Ispaghula can also bind with bile acid, an important component of fat digestion that the body makes from cholesterol. This lowers the circulating blood cholesterol level, because those fats are excreted.

Regular intake of Isabgul plus also helps to regularise the function of the GIT. It cures constipation, intestinal irritation, intestinal inflammation, IBS and ulcerative colitis, adds bulk to the stool and eases evacuation, reduces hyperacidity, increases digestion and improves the function of the digestive system, as well as helping to normalise gut health.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Ispaghula Husk + Sonapata should not be used during pregnancy. It doesn't pass into breast milk, so it can be used safely while breastfeeding.

⚠️ Talk to your doctor before taking any medicine during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
