Specifications
What is psyllium husk powder?
Psyllium husk powder is derived from the husks of Plantago ovata seeds and is a plant-based raw material with a high fibre content. It is characterised by its pronounced swelling capacity and high water-binding capacity. Owing to these properties, psyllium husk powder is primarily used in the food industry and in the manufacture of food supplements.
What is psyllium husk powder used for?
Psyllium husk powder serves mainly as a source of dietary fibre and as a functional ingredient for water binding and texture formation. Upon contact with liquid, the mucilage it contains swells and forms a gel-like consistency. Depending on the application, psyllium husk powder is used both as a single raw material and in combination with other dietary fibres, plant-based ingredients or functional ingredients.
In which applications is psyllium husk powder used?
In the food industry, psyllium husk powder is used in baked goods, muesli, high-fibre foods and functional food products, amongst other things. Its water-binding and texturising properties may also be of interest for gluten-free and low-carbohydrate recipes. In food supplements, psyllium husk powder is used in particular as a concentrated source of plant-based fibre.
What are the benefits of psyllium husk powder?
Psyllium husk powder is characterised by its high fibre content, its strong swelling capacity and its good water-binding properties. Its fine powder form allows for consistent processing and facilitates its incorporation into various recipes. This makes the raw material suitable both for fibre enrichment and for applications where water binding and texture play an important role.
