FDA Proposes Health Claim for Psyllium

According to the May 22 Federal Register, the FDA proposed a rule that would amend regulation permitting food labeling bearing a health claim on soluble fiber from whole oats and lower risk of coronary heart disease to include soluble fiber from psyllium husks. The qualifying level of psyllium fiber is proposed to be 10.2g per total daily intake. This proposal is a result of Kellogg Co. filing a petition in June 1996 requesting that foods which contain a certain amount of psyllium to become eligible for the reduced coronary heart disease risk claim. The cereal manufacture’s petition contained data from 57 clinical studies on psyllium’s effects on lowering cholesterol and the risk of coronary heart disease dated from 1965-1996.

Psyllium, a harvestable grain mostly grown in France, Spain and India, according to Health Daily News, is cultivated in small amounts in southwestern United States. The FDA in not certain whether it will consider psyllium husk in grain-based food applications as generally recognized as safe (GRAS), which Kellogg requested. According to the FDA, "A preliminary review of the GRAS affirmation petition reveals that it contains significant evidence supporting the safety of the use of this substance at the levels necessary to justify a health claim." The FDA refers to a report from the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology’s Life Sciences Research Office determining that psyllium is safe at levels of up to 25g per day.

For over twenty years Sir Jason Winters has stressed the importance of psyllium’s effects on the body when used as a part of your daily diet. Evidently, his pioneering research has finally been validated by this recent study!
