Psyllium hydrophilic mucilloid is a nonabsorbable soluble fiber that lowers plasma cholesterol levels in several species, including humans. However, its mechanism of action has not been fully elucidated. Therefore, using a hamster model, experiments were performed to determine whether psyllium given alone or in combination with a submaximal dose of cholestyramine blocks intestinal cholesterol absorption.
