Two tablespoons give you 10g of **Psyllium Husk** — right in the middle of the 5–15g/day range used across dozens of clinical trials for digestive health, cholesterol reduction, and blood sugar control. That 10g dose is the exact amount shown in a meta-analysis of 28 RCTs to lower LDL cholesterol by about 13 mg/dL, and it delivers 6g of soluble fiber per serving — close to the 7g threshold behind the FDA's approved heart-health claim.

Beyond cholesterol, psyllium has strong evidence for relieving constipation (10–15g/day across multiple doses) and modest support for weight management when taken before meals. The powder format makes it easy to scale your dose up or down depending on your goal — you can start with one tablespoon and increase gradually to reduce bloating.

The main thing to know: psyllium works best when you drink plenty of water with it. Without adequate fluid, the fiber can cause gas and discomfort rather than relief. If your goal is cholesterol support, consistency matters more than dose — daily use over 3–4 weeks is when the LDL reduction kicks in.
