How to take

Ingredients explained
Senna leaf (Cassia angustifolia)
Senna anthraquinone glycosides may stimulate colonic motility and reduce water reabsorption, which can encourage bowel movements.
Caution: Use occasionally and avoid prolonged use, as stimulant laxatives may lead to dependence or electrolyte imbalance; stop if diarrhoea or cramping occurs.
Cascara sagrada bark (Rhamnus purshiana)
Cascara contains hydroxyanthracene derivatives that may increase intestinal peristalsis and fluid secretion to promote stool passage.
Caution: Short-term, occasional use only; may cause cramping or loose stools and is not advised if you already have diarrhoea.
Psyllium seed husk (Plantago ovata)
Psyllium is a soluble fibre that absorbs water to form a gel, which may soften stool and support regular bowel movements.
Caution: Take with plenty of water to reduce choking risk and avoid use if you have difficulty swallowing.
How they work together
Senna and cascara offer stimulant actions that prompt bowel motility, while psyllium adds soluble fibre that retains water to soften stool and ease passage. Together, they address motility and stool consistency for occasional support.
