Psyllium substitute for high priced bran buds

spoon The thing that makes bran buds so good for reducing cholesterol is the soluble fibre they contain – in the form of psyllium. Since a box of bran buds cost about 6 dollars now, I just bought some powdered psyllium. We’ll sprinkle 1 tablespoon on our cereal until the bran bud company (there’s really only one brand) returns to sanity.
