Directions: It is most effective when used everyday, and can be used as long as desired.
Formulation: Does NOT Contain: Gluten-Free: psyllium husks do not contain any gluten so people who are gluten sensitive can use them. Yerba Prima uses only premium quality psyllium husks, without added sweeteners, colors or additives.
Precautions: Allergies: CAUTION: A very small percentage of individuals, particularly health care providers who have been occupationally exposed to psyllium dust, may develop a sensitivity to psyllium. This sensitivity may result in an allergic reaction. If you experience a strong reaction, with difficulty in swallowing or breathing, after taking this product, seek immediate medical attention.
Precautions: Children: Keep out of the reach of children.

SUGGESTED USE: ADULTS AND CHILDREN OVER 12: 1 tablespoon, one to three times a day. CHILDREN 6 - 12: 1 teaspoon, one to three times a day. See Directions.
