Uses

This combination is used as a dietary supplement for weight management. Psyllium husk provides soluble dietary fiber that increases satiety and supports bowel regularity. Chromium is included to support glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity.

Do not use if

Contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to psyllium or chromium. Avoid in patients with esophageal or gastrointestinal narrowing or obstruction. Use with caution in diabetic patients on medication as psyllium may reduce glycemic response.

Side effects

Psyllium husk may cause bloating, flatulence, and abdominal discomfort, especially when fiber intake is increased rapidly. Adequate fluid intake is essential to prevent intestinal obstruction. Chromium at supplemental doses is generally well tolerated.

Warnings

Take with sufficient water to prevent choking or intestinal obstruction. Not a substitute for a balanced diet and exercise. Consult a physician before use if pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking medication for diabetes.

How it works

Psyllium husk forms a viscous gel in the gastrointestinal tract, slowing carbohydrate absorption and prolonging satiety. Chromium enhances insulin receptor signaling to improve peripheral glucose uptake.

Storage

Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture. Keep the container tightly closed.
