NOVA 12G TAB

About

NOVA 12G TAB is a high-dose dietary fiber supplement, typically containing bulk-forming laxatives such as psyllium husk or methylcellulose. It is designed to absorb water in the intestines, forming a gel-like substance that adds bulk to stool. This increased bulk stimulates bowel movements and helps to soften the stool, making it easier to pass. The primary goal is to promote regular bowel function and alleviate symptoms associated with various digestive irregularities, such as constipation.

This supplement works by increasing the fecal mass, which in turn helps to normalize bowel transit time. It can be beneficial for individuals experiencing occasional constipation, or those needing to maintain regularity due to conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) with constipation, or diverticulosis. Its mechanism is gentle and physiological, making it a suitable option for long-term use under medical guidance to support overall digestive health and comfort.
