It really appears to me like it might be a by product of the psyllium, regardless of what it is why don't you just do a parasite cleanse. I used Now brand Fresh Green Walnut Wormwood complex available at Amazon. Worked great and cleared up so many symptoms for me. Then maybe do a spit test to determine if you have candida (if you don't already know. I purchased lufenuron to clear up my candida. Good luck to you.
