Psyllium husk, culled from the seeds of a plant known as Plantago ovata, has become a generic description of all psyllium husk products in the market. But some products may contain crushed seeds along with the husk. It's the husk which expands when mixed with a liquid and delivers the benefit, not the seed. The US FDA requires that for a Psyllium husk product to be labeled as a soluble fiber it must contain no less than 95% husk. Since the other 5% is for the ingredients necessary to make the final product, the product must be 100% pure Psyllium husk. 

The quality of Psyllium husk depends on the plant and its cultivation. Higher the quality, the greater the swelling properties, and the better its efficacy. Mucilin®️ expand 40 times it weight, the highest expansion index possible, and forms and forms a smooth jello like bulk with a drink of water or juice. Poor quality, especially a product with seeds, forms a clumpy mass with clouding impurities.
