Can someone tell me exactly which psyllium husk powder to order from netrition.com. There are so many different choices! Trying to place my order today!
THANKS

Netrition is not letting me click on the correct one to show you a link. It is the whole flakes that you want. I bought my psyllium at whole Foods recently. Pretty cheap, it was around $6 for 12 0z. It is 365 brand. It says:
PSYLLIUM HUSK WHOLE FLAKES
It is in a cannister. The color of the cannister is a browny, orange. Hope this helps you. Don't know why but netrition is only allowing me to click on one that is orange flavored and you don't want that.

Bummer, I think I bought the psyllium husk powder. Will that still work in the recipes?

Corey, I think it might work if it is not orange flavored.

Okay Pearl, I'll give it a try. It is plain, not flavored.

Oh! Aha! I bought the powder as well - not flakes. I had a bit of trouble the first time making egg white wraps even though I used the newly recommended 1/8th of a cup. Now I see why maybe. The next time, I tried using 2 teaspoons and it worked so much better! I also just did what Pearl suggested and used a whisk to stir it up rather than a blender.

I only see whole or powder of the Now brand on netrition, I don't see flakes. I bought a bag locally and it just says whole psyllium husks, it looks sort of like flakes. Is this ok? I thought I bought powder, the canister must have said powder and the bag whole. :/
