    You can pick some up at any health food store. I believe the come in both forms, powder and pill. The powder tastes like :censor . So I would stick to the pills :nod

      Thanks! I have to say I am glad they come in pills because they certainly don't sound appetizing!

        Drink lots and lots and lots of water with these. They are a bulk forming laxative, and if you don't drink enough water, you'll only constipate yourself further. Also, start with the lowest recomended doseage, and increase only if necessary.

          Yes, go with the pills unless you like drinking...well...I won't say what I think it's consistency is like....bleahhhh!
          So now I'm stuck with a bag of psyllium husks in the cupboard!

          What I do though, is mix a tbs or so of them in with parmesan cheese and use it to coat chicken...gives it a bit of a powdery look which is not so great, but it adds a bit of crunch.
