Psyllium has the strongest randomized evidence of any fiber: 16 trials, 1,251 adults, clearest effects on stool frequency and regularity. Ground flax improved stool consistency across 12 weeks. Both are in this jar, freshly ground, with grass-fed collagen alongside.
For adults adding seed fiber to a day that's short on it. 100 or 200 capsules, or 150 g and 450 g powder.

Why people use it
- Psyllium is the fiber with the best evidence. A 2022 meta-analysis of 16 randomized trials in 1,251 adults found psyllium among the clearest performers for stool frequency and regularity. Those trials used 10 g a day or more; this serving is 1 to 3 g of blend, so read it as an addition to your fiber, not your fiber.
- Three seeds, freshly ground. Psyllium husk for the gel, chia and flax for whole-seed fiber. USDA lists chia at 34.4 g and flaxseed at 27.3 g of fiber per 100 g. Ground fresh, because ground seed goes stale.
- Supports normal bowel regularity and stool consistency. A 12-week randomized trial of ground flaxseed improved stool consistency scores against placebo, with the effect still there four weeks later.
- Collagen for the amino acids. Grass-fed beef collagen peptides are roughly a third glycine, with proline and glutamine alongside - the amino acids the gut lining is built and rebuilt from. At 1 to 3 g of blend the collagen share is a companion to the fiber rather than a full collagen serving; the collagen powder is there if you want the dose.
- Dosed away from everything. Viscous fiber slows the absorption of whatever is in the gut with it. The one-hour gap on both sides is what keeps this out of the way of your food, your minerals, and your prescriptions.
What's in the blend
The blend ratio is not disclosed, so no per-serving fiber figure can be calculated. Here is what each ingredient contributes and how the serving compares to the published amounts.
| Ingredient | What it contributes |
|---|---|
| Organic Psyllium Husk (freshly ground) | The gel-forming fiber, roughly 35 percent soluble and 65 percent insoluble polysaccharide. The whole serving here is 1-3 g of blend. |
| Organic Black Chia Seed (freshly ground) | Whole-seed fiber. USDA lists dried chia at 34.4 g total dietary fiber per 100 g. |
| Organic Brown Flax Seed (freshly ground) | Whole-seed fiber. USDA lists flaxseed at 27.3 g total dietary fiber per 100 g. |
| 100% Grass-Fed Beef Collagen Peptides | Protein, and specifically glycine, proline, and glutamine - the amino acids that make up the gut lining. The absorption study we've read used a single 10 g dose; the collagen share here is a companion to the fiber, not a collagen serving. |
| Pork-free bovine capsule (capsules only) | The shell. Powder versions have none. |
Fiber values from the USDA total dietary fiber table. Collagen peptide absorption from a randomized crossover study. Ask us for the current certificate of analysis.
How to use
- Adults: 1 to 6 capsules, or 1 to 3 grams of powder.
- Take it with at least 8 oz (250 mL) of water, and drink more afterward. Never take it dry, and never open a capsule and swallow the contents without liquid.
- Not with food. At least 1 hour before eating, or at least 1 hour after. Either direction works.
- Keep other supplements and medicines outside that same window; viscous fiber slows what's in the gut with it.
- Start at the low end and build up. Gas and bloating come from going too fast, not from something being wrong.
Sourcing & making
Three organic seeds, ground fresh rather than bought pre-ground, blended with 100% grass-fed beef collagen peptides. Lab tested before it's packed. Capsules are pork-free bovine; the powder is the same blend without the shell. Made in small batches when you order.
Full ingredients
- Organic Psyllium Husk Powder (Freshly Ground)
- Organic Black Chia Seed Powder (Freshly Ground)
- Organic Brown Flax Seed Powder (Freshly Ground)
- 100% Grass-Fed Beef Collagen Peptide Protein Powder
- Pork Free Bovine Capsule (Capsules Only)
Who it's for — and who it isn't
Good fit for:
- Adults whose diet runs short on fiber and who want it from ground seed rather than a synthetic isolate
- People already taking a pre- and probiotic who want fermentable substrate between meals
- Anyone who wants the capsules for travel and the powder for home
Probably not for you if:
- You have difficulty swallowing, a known narrowing of the gut, or a history of bowel obstruction. Do not use it without medical advice.
- You cannot reliably take it with a full glass of water. Obstruction is the documented risk with psyllium taken on too little fluid.
- You avoid beef or have alpha-gal sensitivity. This contains beef collagen and, in capsules, a bovine shell.
Testing & quality
Every product is lab tested. Certificates of analysis on request, about a two-week turnaround. Every lot is tested for purity and contaminants before it's packed.
The research behind the ingredients
Published research on the ingredients in this product, for education. These studies were not conducted on this product.
Organic Psyllium Husk Powder
Fibre supplementation regularity meta-analysis, 2022
The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition · 2022 · systematic review and meta-analysis · n=16 RCTs, 1,251 participants
Pooling 16 randomized controlled trials in 1,251 adults with chronic constipation, fibre supplementation improved treatment response and stool frequency, with psyllium and pectin showing the clearest individual effects and doses above 10 g/day taken for at least four weeks appearing optimal.
Organic Brown Flax Seed Powder
Flaxseed regularity trial, 2018
Nutrition & Metabolism · 2018 · RCT · n=53
In a 12-week randomized placebo-controlled trial of 53 constipated adults, flaxseed improved constipation symptom scores by 2.46 points versus 0.41 with placebo and significantly improved stool consistency, with benefit persisting through four weeks of follow-up.
Organic Black Chia Seed Powder (Salvia hispanica)
Chia seed supplementation meta-analysis, 2024
Nutrition & Metabolism · 2024 · systematic review and meta-analysis · n=10 RCTs, 424 participants
Pooling 10 randomized trials in 424 overweight adults, chia seed supplementation significantly reduced C-reactive protein, waist circumference and systolic blood pressure but produced no significant change in blood lipids, fasting glucose, HbA1c or insulin.
Evidence note: Strong for psyllium, moderate for flax, neutral for chia, and mechanistic for collagen: psyllium's effect on regularity is among the best-replicated findings in nutrition, though the trials used 10 g or more per day against the 1-3 g serving on this label, and the chia meta-analysis measured lipid and glycaemic endpoints rather than bowel outcomes. Collagen's case here is compositional - glycine, proline and glutamine are the amino acids of the gut lining - and clinical trials of collagen peptides on gut and colon endpoints remain to be done.
A note on iron
Iron is essential, but stored and unbound iron is reactive; it feeds oxidative stress. The body moves iron using copper-dependent ceruloplasmin and vitamin A, which is why we focus on whole-food copper and retinol rather than pushing more iron. If you are considering iron, test your levels first and talk it through with your practitioner. Iron is not right for everyone.

FAQ
How much fiber is in a serving?
The blend ratio isn't published, so it can't be calculated. A 1-3 g serving of blend is a fraction of that. This adds fiber; it doesn't replace it.
Why not take it with food?
Viscous fiber slows the absorption of whatever is in the gut with it.
Why is there collagen in a fiber product?
For the amino acids. Collagen peptides are about a third glycine, with proline and glutamine alongside, which is the raw material the gut lining is built from. The absorption study we've read used 10 g, so treat the collagen in a 1-3 g serving as a companion. If you want a real collagen dose, buy the collagen powder.
Capsules or powder?
Same blend. Capsules are easier to count and carry; powder is cheaper per gram and easier to scale up. Either way, take it with a full glass of water and never dry.
Is bloating in the first week normal?
It's common when fiber is new or increased. Reduce the amount and build up more slowly. We're not going to call it a detox effect - it's the fiber, and the fix is to go slower.
Pairs well with
- Daily Biotic Capsules — the pre- and probiotic this feeds between meals
- 100% Grass-Fed Collagen Protein — if you want collagen at a real dose rather than as a companion
- Detox BOMB — the binder, on its own schedule well away from this one
Cautions
- Take with at least 8 oz (250 mL) of water and drink more afterward. Eating this product without enough liquid may cause choking. Do not use this product if you have difficulty in swallowing.
- Allergic and anaphylactic reactions to psyllium have been published. Stop use and seek care for any reaction.
- Store cool and dry, away from light. Best within 12 months of opening.
Lab Tested
Every product. COA on request, ~2 weeks.
Small Batch
Made in small batches, about as close to homemade as a capsule gets.
Nothing Hidden
Four ingredients, plus the capsule. No synthetic fiber, sugar, or sweeteners.
