Psyllium husk from Plantago ovata seeds is the most clinically validated dietary fibre supplement, with the US FDA granting a qualified health claim for its ability to reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. Its gel-forming soluble fibre (primarily arabinoxylan) creates a viscous matrix in the small intestine that entraps dietary cholesterol and bile acids, forcing their faecal excretion and driving hepatic LDL-receptor upregulation; slows glucose absorption, reducing postprandial insulin area-under-the-curve by 10–20% in type 2 diabetics; and softens stool and promotes regular peristalsis via mechanoreceptor stimulation without the cramping associated with stimulant laxatives. Meta-analyses of 21 randomised trials confirm psyllium reduces LDL cholesterol by 6–24% with a consistent dose-response relationship.
