Description
Plantago ovata, also known as psyllium or ispaghula, is a plant species that is native to Iran and India. It belongs to the Plantaginaceae family and is widely used for its medicinal properties.
The plant is a small herb that grows to about 30 cm in height, with slender leaves and small, light-colored flowers. The seeds of the plant are the part that is commonly used for medicinal purposes, as they contain high levels of soluble fiber.
One of the most well-known uses of Plantago ovata is as a natural laxative. The soluble fiber in the seeds absorbs water and forms a gel-like substance that helps to regulate bowel movements and ease constipation. In addition to its laxative effects, psyllium has also been shown to help lower cholesterol levels and regulate blood sugar levels.
