It's Just! - Psyllium Husk Powder, Easy Mixing Dietary Fiber, Cleanse Your Digestive System, Finely Ground Powder, Ideal for Keto Baking, Non-GMO (Unflavored, 10oz (Pack of 1))

This is the best priced and highest rated psyllium husk I could find on Amazon. it works as intended, however it tastes awful. I try to mask the flavor with various things and there's just no getting around it. The taste is terrible. I will say that I have yet to find a psyllium husk that tastes good. No texture and full of health benefits and nutrients however it's really hard to get past the awful flavor of this stuff.

In as few words as possible: It works. When I had problems with, um, you know, my doctor told me to add fiber with a psyllium product. I doubted her and thought I had plenty of fiber in my diet, but she said I had to do this before she would try anything else such as a pharmaceutical. But, if you just choose a name brand fiber product with psyllium, most if not all will include maltodextrin. You can google it, but maltodextrin wreaks havoc with your blood sugar level. I kept on scrolling and found this. Yes, it is just psyllium. Also, it is one of the few or only psyllium product that is honest about it not dissolving in water. None of them will. I added it to oatmeal, as suggested, and I didn't even know it was there. Until it worked! Oh yal, it is much cheaper than the name brands with maltodextrin as well.

I bought this for gluten free baking and tested it in a few different bread recipes. I mainly wanted structure and fiber without changing the look of the final loaf too much. Psyllium husk is a solid binder, but this is one of those brands that changes color when baked. The powder itself is very finely ground and easy to work with. It mixes into dough smoothly with no clumping and behaves like psyllium usually does. It thickens well and helps hold everything together. From a texture standpoint, the breads actually came out decent and held their shape. The downside is the color. Every loaf and roll I baked turned purple or grayish purple once it hit the oven. It is noticeable and honestly not very appetizing, especially if you are baking for other people. I have since learned that you need a lighter or blonde psyllium husk to avoid this, so that is on me, but it is still worth mentioning.

I'm always amazed when people taste or smell supplements...That's like smelling a medication. Granted, you don't want to put anything rancid or foul in your mouth, but they are supplements not desserts. But I can honestly say, the unflavored version is about as unflavored as anything can be. I mean, even water has a damn flavor. I am not taking a fiber supplement, or any supplement for the taste or texture. PUT IT IN YOUR MOUTH AND SWALLOW IT! Some people have to smell and taste everything, which is not the point when it comes to medication and supplements. If you think of childhood when hated cough syrup and as an adult you just swallow it.... so smelling and tasting supplements is immature in my opinion.

I like that this is a simple powder with a small serving size (1 tsp) that still has 4 g of insoluble fiber. I looked everywhere for something comparable, and I haven't found anything that meets the nutrition facts. This was important to me, as other brands/capsules don't have that much insoluble fiber OR require you to take like 6+ horse pills a day... pass. That being said, this stuff really does taste like dirt and it doesn't dissolve (as advertised). Kudos to folks in the reviews saying they can chug their glass of water and move on with their day. I wanted to vomit every time I tried that. I was able to do what someone else here recommended, which was stirring it into another powder they put in their daily drink (for me, that's collagen I mix into my morning tea). I mixed the 2 powders together with a fork, then mixed that really good into my tea, then kept mixing it as the tea cooled/as I drank it. Yes, you will still get tiny clumps, and yes, at the very end you kind of have to chug whatever dregs are left at the bottom. But A) it doesn't taste nearly as bad, and B) it's much easier to chug the last 2 sips of flavored, mostly dissolved tea than an 8 oz glass of dirt.
