Psyllium

Something else I bought last week. As a matter of fact there is psyllium in the cereal bars below. On the box it has in big letters 24% of the recommended daily fiber. There are 5 bars in the box. Very tasty. This was my snack today in the car while I was driving to my clients house.. I actually ate 2 because I got hungry about 3 hrs. after I ate the first one. I bought them last week. I haven't seen them around before so they must be fairley new. Actually I just noticed on the box it does say 'New' and the NI is as follows: 1 bar 120 calories (35 g) Fat 2 g Saturated o.5 g Trans 0 g Cholesterol 0mg Sodium 120 mg Potassuim 110 mg Carbs. 26 g Fiber 6 g Sugars 8 g Protein 2 g This was my supper my hubby made, it was white and brown instant rice with beef stir fry. I thought that was a good idea putting the white rice with the brown rice. He has a knack for stir fry. It was really good. For dessert I ended up eating a whole Areo bar, but I couldn't help it. One bite lead to two and so on, and so on. I also has a large glass of water with supper. Breakfast: Today I made some Delicious oatmeal for breakfast. No pic. though. I only had a half a serving because I wasn't that hungry, I put some flax meal, almond meal, splash vanilla, dash salt, psyllium seed husk and I sprinkled organic sugar over top of hot oatmeal with a bit of skim milk. Man I love that oatmeal with all that stuff in it. I forgot to mention last week when I bought the Psyllium seed husk, I've used it a few times in my oatmeal so far. I am going to use it in my cereal the next time I have some. There is 1 calorie in 1 tsp. (2g) of the Psyllium 2 g Fiber (5%) 2 % Iron 2 g Carbohydrates 2 mg sodium No Fats or Cholesterol
