Isabgol is also being used in making Ayurvedic medicines for centuries. It has been used to get relief and avoid many health-related problems. Today in this episode we are going to tell you how isabgol husk should be consumed and how it proves to be a boon for the body. Let's know about them
Method of consumption of Isabgol
There is a question in the mind of many people that how to take Isabgol or how much quantity of Isabgol husk should be consumed according to age. Generally eating isabgol husk mixed with water is considered most beneficial. Mixing isabgol husk with water results in a viscous gel-like mixture, which is odourless and tasteless. Mix one to two spoons of isabgol husk in a glass of warm water and consume it after dinner. Mix one to two spoons of isabgol husk in a bowl of curd. For sweetness, you can also add sugar as per taste. A mixture of isabgol and curd is very effective in providing relief from diarrhoea. Drink a glass of water after sometime after eating isabgol and curd. To clean the stomach, mix one spoon of Triphala powder and two spoons of Isabgol husk and consume it with warm water at night.
Helpful in relieving constipation
All the problems related to the stomach are only due to the problem of constipation. That's why it is important to first treat constipation so that the rest of the problems get cured automatically. The high amount of fibre present in isabgol acts as a laxative. It increases the motility of the intestinal muscles and softens the stool, making it much easier to pass.
Balances the level of blood sugar
Daily consumption of Isabgol husk can help diabetic patients to keep their blood sugar level in balance. It is also effective in controlling sugar spikes. Consuming 5 grams of isabgol twice a day can easily control blood sugar levels in people suffering from type 2 diabetes.
