Spanish term or phrase: Ispágula, cutícula seminal
Hi everyone,

I'm translating the information and ingredients of a food supplement from Spanish into English, and one of the ingredients listed is "Ispágula, cutícula seminal" (ie, the "cutícula seminal" part of psyllium - from the Plantago genus). Ispágula is Psyllium, but I'm baffled with the "cutícula seminal" bit, and all I can find on the Internet is related to the human body or to insects!

Is anyone able to help?

Thanks very much.

  -> Thanks, Chema, though I think in English psyllium is much more common. I've heard it loads of times, but ispaghula is a new word for me.
