Psyllium husk, the active ingredient
Psyllium husk is a soluble, gel-forming fiber from the seed husks of Plantago ovata. Mixed with water it swells into a soft gel that soaks up water and adds bulk, which helps things move through on time.
It's also one of the most studied fibers there is. A meta-analysis of 16 trials found that fiber supplements helped adults with chronic constipation, with psyllium among the fibers that clearly worked.
At the brand's full routine of two scoops a day, you get about 7.2 g of psyllium and 6 g of dietary fiber. For how that plays out week by week, see does ColonBroom work.
The rest of the formula
Everything else in the scoop is there for taste, color and freshness.
| Ingredient | What it does |
|---|---|
| Stevia leaf extract | A plant-based sweetener. It keeps the drink sugar-free at 20 calories per scoop, according to the brand |
| Citric acid | Adds a light tang |
| Crystallized lemon | Citric acid, lemon oil and lemon juice. The brand says it also helps keep the powder fresh and stable |
| Natural flavor | Gives the strawberry taste |
| Fruit and vegetable juice | Gives the red color without artificial dyes, the brand says |
| Sea salt | Rounds out the flavor |
| Rice hulls | Absorb moisture so the powder keeps its texture, according to the brand |
That's the whole list: eight ingredients, with one doing the work and seven making it pleasant to drink.
What the brand says it leaves out
- Sugar: the drink is sweetened with stevia.
- Animal ingredients: the brand says it's vegan.
- Gluten: the brand says it's gluten-free.
- GMO ingredients: the brand says it's non-GMO.
- Artificial dyes: the color comes from fruit and vegetable juice.
How to take it
- Stir one scoop into 8 to 10 oz of water and drink it right away, before it thickens.
- Drink another glass of water afterward.
- Start with one scoop a day in week one, then two a day, 30 to 60 minutes before breakfast and dinner.
- Don't take it within 2 hours of bedtime.
The brand says you may feel a little bloated in the first days while your body adjusts to more fiber, which is why it suggests starting with one scoop.
