Product Description

Senna is a natural laxative derived from the leaves and pods of the Senna plant, commonly used to treat constipation. It contains compounds called sennosides, which stimulate the intestines, promoting bowel movements. Senna is often recommended for short-term relief of constipation and is available in various forms, including teas, tablets, and syrups. While generally safe for occasional use, prolonged or excessive consumption may lead to dependency, electrolyte imbalances, or dehydration. It is not recommended for individuals with intestinal obstruction, inflammatory bowel disease, or severe dehydration. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult a healthcare provider before use.
