Psyllium Industrial
(Kha-Kha) Powder
Psyllium Industrial (Kha-Kha) Powder, also known as Psyllium Industrial Dust, is a by-product obtained during the processing of Psyllium seeds into Psyllium Husk. It consists of fine extraneous fibrous material separated during husk extraction and retains natural fiber and binding properties.
This industrial-grade material is not intended for human consumption and is widely used in animal feed and technical applications. It is commonly utilized in veterinary formulations, particularly in horse feed, and is also applied in soil erosion control and other industrial uses where natural fiber and binding characteristics are required.
