Abstract
Unflavored psyllium husk-containing drink mix compositions are prepared consisting essentially of small particle size psyllium husk comprising less than about 10% of psyllium husk having particle sizes larger than about 60 mesh screen, less than about 2.0% edible acid, and sugar. Such compositions are unflavored so as to permit mixing small particle size psyllium, which is readily suspended in a liquid without a gritty texture, with a broader selection of liquids, such as milk and fruit drinks, without rapid gelling of the psyllium husk.
