Product Use |
Psyllium, known scientifically as Plantago ovata, is native to India and cultivated mainly in the western and southern regions, with presence in countries like Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Iran. Its cultivation follows a stringent process to ensure final product quality and purity.
Production starts with harvesting small, brown seeds, which are sun-dried and cleaned to eliminate impurities. Dehusking removes the seed's outer layer, yielding a white, fibrous husk. This husk undergoes drying and grinding to produce psyllium powder.
Extraction methods vary, with mechanical grinding and sieving being common for husk separation from seeds. Water-based extraction, involving seed treatment and husk separation, is another method. Mechanical processes are favored for efficiency and nutrient preservation, resulting in higher-quality products.
