Description: Fluid Extract of Senna Pods 1:1 in ethanol and purified water.

Traditional Uses: 

Traditionally, senna has been used to help relieve constipation and improve digestive health. It works by stimulating peristalsis, the wave-like motion of the intestines that moves stool through the digestive tract. This makes senna a popular choice in herbal formulations designed for short-term relief of constipation.

In modern herbalism, senna is commonly used for its gentle yet effective action on the digestive system. It is often included in cleansing or detoxifying products, as it may help in promoting bowel regularity and flushing out accumulated waste from the body. Senna is also sometimes used in combination with other herbs to support overall digestive health.

However, while senna can be beneficial for short-term use, it is important to be cautious about prolonged use. Extended or excessive use of senna may lead to dependence, where the body becomes reliant on it for bowel movements. It is generally recommended for occasional use and should not be used for extended periods without the guidance of a healthcare provider.

Senna should be used with caution by individuals with certain health conditions, such as intestinal obstructions, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), or rectal bleeding, as its stimulating action may worsen these conditions. It is also contraindicated in pregnant and breastfeeding women, as it may stimulate uterine contractions. Those with heart conditions or electrolyte imbalances should consult a healthcare professional before using senna. As with any herbal remedy, it is important to seek professional advice before incorporating senna extract into your health regimen.
