Production & Sourcing

Harvesting: Psyllium plants are grown in organic fields. Once mature, the plants are carefully harvested, usually by cutting the stems close to the base.

Separating Husks: After harvesting, the psyllium plant stems are threshed to separate the seeds from the husks. The husks are the outermost layer of the plant and contain the fiber-rich component.

Cleaning: The separated husks are thoroughly cleaned to remove dirt, debris, and impurities. This cleaning process ensures the purity of the husks before further processing.

Drying: The cleaned psyllium husks are air-dried to reduce their moisture content. This helps prevent mold growth and ensures longer shelf life.

Grinding: Once dried, the psyllium husks are finely ground into a powder using specialized equipment. The grinding process results in the fine and powdery texture of psyllium husk powder.

Sieving: The ground psyllium husk powder is often sieved to ensure uniform particle size and remove any larger particles or remaining impurities.
