Sapgol Powder

Overview Sapgol Powder

Plantago ovata husk, known as isabgol or Sapgol powder, effectively relieves constipation. Its mechanism involves increasing fecal bulk, stimulating intestinal motility. Simultaneously, it draws water into the stool, softening it for easier elimination. Historically employed in Ayurvedic medicine as an emollient, mild laxative, coolant, and diuretic, this time-honored remedy remains a popular home treatment for constipation. The powder’s absorptive properties, leading to significant swelling and the formation of a lubricating gel, facilitate bowel transit and promote regular bowel movements. As a natural Ayurvedic preparation, it's generally safe, free of adverse effects, and non-habit-forming, unlike many synthetic laxatives. Dosage: Administer two teaspoons of Sapgol powder with water before sleep for optimal results. Consult a healthcare professional before use.
