The dietary fiber content in psyllium husk is over 80%, with a soluble-to-insoluble dietary fiber ratio of approximately 7:3. Psyllium Husk Powder 99% Purity refers to a high-specification psyllium husk powder product with a purity of not less than 99%. This purity indicator reflects the high concentration and enrichment of active components (dietary fiber and natural mucilage) in the product. The product appears as an off-white to grayish-white fine powder with uniform particles and good flowability, facilitating easy mixing with various fine powder raw materials. Psyllium husk is also known as Psyllium Husk, Plantago ovata Husk, or Isabgol. In 2014, the former National Health and Family Planning Commission approved psyllium husk as a new food raw material (Announcement No. 10 of 2014), with usage excluding infant foods. The core specification indicators are "dietary fiber content ≥80%" and "purity ≥99%".

The main component of psyllium husk powder is dietary fiber (total content over 80%), with a soluble-to-insoluble dietary fiber ratio of 7:3. The specific composition is as follows:

Psyllium husk contains 80% fiber, while other fiber-rich grains such as oat bran and wheat bran contain only 15% and 10%, respectively. The dietary fiber in psyllium husk powder includes soluble fiber (approximately 55%–60%) and insoluble fiber (approximately 25%–30%), which work together to promote bowel regularity and metabolic regulation in the intestine.
