It gets into the cells and activates it so that the body produces an immunological radical reaction which causes astronomical titers (antibodies). People get sensitized to psyllium. Even people who just handle it (like nurses and doctors) get a violent immunological reaction. It produces a very high degree of antibodies as the body reacts to it (titers goes way up). If too many antibodies are produced, it can affect the kidney glomuerial filtering unit. It produces hormonal effects because hormones are flushed out. The reason it causes water to be brought into the gut is because the body is trying to inactivate the material. Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
