Psyllium Husk - Feed Ingredient

Psyllium husk is the outer layer of the seeds from the Plantago ovata plant, valued for its high soluble fiber content, primarily in the form of mucilage. When hydrated, it forms a viscous gel that contributes to its functional roles in animal feed. Psyllium husk is typically processed into a fine powder or granules for use in supplements and feed products.

In equine nutrition, psyllium husk is included for its prebiotic properties. The fiber can serve as a fermentable substrate for beneficial hindgut microbes, potentially supporting microbial balance and digestive health.
