Organic Psyllium Husk
Natural coarse psyllium husk with 4g of dietary fibre per 5g serving — ideal for drinks, smoothies and gluten-free or low-carb-style baking.
SpiceBloom Organic Psyllium Husk is a simple, versatile pantry staple made from 100% certified organic psyllium husk from India. With 80g of dietary fibre per 100g, including both soluble and insoluble fibre, a small amount adds a substantial amount of fibre to your everyday food.
Unlike very finely milled psyllium powder, this product retains a natural coarse husk texture. It can be stirred into water or juice, blended into smoothies and breakfast bowls, or used as a functional ingredient in baking.
Psyllium is especially valued in gluten-free and low-carb-style recipes because it absorbs liquid and forms a gel-like texture. This helps bind ingredients together and can improve the structure of breads, pizza bases and other recipes made without traditional wheat flour.
A Simple Way to Add More Fibre
Psyllium does not need complicated ingredients or flavouring to be useful. Its value comes from its naturally high fibre content and ability to absorb liquid.
4g Fibre Per Serve
A 5g serving provides 4g of dietary fibre, including 3.2g of soluble fibre and 0.8g of insoluble fibre.
Useful Baking Binder
Psyllium absorbs water and develops structure, making it especially useful in recipes using almond, coconut or other alternative flours.
Easy Everyday Uses
Stir into drinks, blend into smoothies, mix through breakfast bowls or use a small amount to thicken recipes.
Why Bakers Keep Psyllium in the Pantry
Gluten is what normally gives wheat bread much of its stretch and structure. When recipes use alternative flours, they often need another ingredient to help hold moisture and bring the mixture together.
Psyllium husk absorbs liquid and becomes gel-like as it hydrates. In baking, this can help doughs bind together and create a more cohesive texture, which is why psyllium appears in many gluten-free and low-carb-style bread, bun and pizza-base recipes.
The coarse texture of this husk also makes it suitable for customers who prefer something less finely powdered, whether they are mixing it into a drink or using it as part of a baking recipe.
Easy Ways to Use Psyllium Husk
- With water or juice: Mix the serving specified on the pack into plenty of liquid, stir well and consume promptly.
- Smoothies: Blend a measured amount into your smoothie for extra dietary fibre and a thicker consistency.
- Breakfast bowls: Stir through oats, yoghurt or chia pudding, adding extra liquid as required.
- Bread and buns: Use according to your recipe to help bind alternative flours and retain moisture.
- Pizza bases: Commonly used in gluten-free and low-carb-style doughs where extra structure is needed.
- Thickening: Small amounts can thicken smoothies, soups and other suitable recipes as the husk hydrates.
💧 Important: Always Use with Plenty of Liquid
Psyllium absorbs a significant amount of water as it hydrates. Always consume it with plenty of fluid and follow the serving and preparation directions on the current package. Do not consume the dry husk by itself.

Mix the serving specified on the package into plenty of water or another suitable liquid, stir thoroughly and consume promptly. Always maintain adequate fluid intake when using psyllium.

I added it to make the gluten-free bread chewy, and it works really well.
Fast service and high quality product. I will be a repeat customer :-)
Unfortunately the product arrived spilling out and damaged - but Spicebloom replied to my email within 30mins of sending it and remedied my order
Thank you Spicebloom
excellent purchase, super quick delivery. will definitely buy again, thanks
It seems to be good. I've only used it in my bread maker. I'll try using it more. It would be better if I made a routine out of taking it. It's good for the body.
Since purchasingi have used this in seed biscuits, cakes and as a thickening agent valuable for its soluble fibre content. Since being on a multiple of pain medications with associated constipation problems. Just 1 teaspoon of psyllium husk in yogurt or soup has resolved 18 months of problems immediately. I would absolutely recommend this as an addition to any diet as fibre isa vital component of a daily diet.
great price, happy with product
Great product
No great taste to it so easy to drink.

Let customers speak for us
from 1319 reviewsGreat Brazil Nuts very fresh, crunchy and tasty.
So fresh
Love it
Bought to spread round amaryllis lilies - apparently oats repel slugs/snails. We will see. I used to like oats, but as vac injured son became gluten sensitive, I no longer buy them for just me. Happy to share them with the snail population until they move house. meantime will hise the packet from son.
Yum top notch pumpkin seeds love the quality 😋
Perfect
Great communication through the whole sales process, value for money and quick postage with regular updates. Products well priced, fresh, tasty and smell divine. Recommended!
Great product and price but the freight took some time.
Great Value
Excellent cacao powder and I'm very happy to find an organic cacao - tastes great.
Very happy to have found this organic ashwagandha,. Great product,
Absolutely fabulous and high quality! Very happy customer :)
Very good, most shells open easily. Nice nuts. Just the right amount of sal.
My second order of this product speaks for itself.
Very easy. Product quality always great. Shipping always prompt. New letters informative. It'd be great if shipping was free for repeat customers. When you only require a small quantity of spices replaced the shipping charge can make it not so price competitive.
