Description
- Origin: Isabgol is derived from the Plantago ovata plant, a short-stemmed herb that is primarily cultivated in the western regions of India, especially in the states of Gujarat (especially in Mehsana and Sidhpur), Rajasthan, and Madhya Pradesh. The plant requires a cool and dry climate for optimal growth and is usually harvested in the rabi season (winter crop). The husk is mechanically separated from the seeds through a specialized process and then further ground to make fine Isabgol Powder. The purity, swelling index, and moisture content are key factors that determine the quality of Isabgol.
- Distribution: Domestically, Isabgol Powder is widely distributed through Ayurvedic shops, pharmacies, supermarkets, and online marketplaces. Brands such as Dabur, Patanjali, and Organic India are leading players in the retail segment.
