Question

Can a normal healthy person take isabgol every day? I deal with chronic diarrhea and I've been taking 2 teaspoons of isabgol mixed with lemon and water every morning. Is this okay? I'm a bit worried if there are any side effects from using isabgol for a long time, like over a few years. What do you think?

I'm a bit concerned about my latest USG report. It mentions hepatomegaly with mild fatty changes, grade 1, and also notes that my uterus is bulky. I'm not really sure what this means for my health. Could this be something serious or is it fairly common? Would love to understand what steps I might need to take or any lifestyle changes that could help.
