Scientific Information
Senna leaf (Cassia angustifolia) is a medicinal plant known for its laxative properties. The active components of senna leaf are anthraquinone glycosides, particularly sennosides A and B, which stimulate intestinal contractions and promote bowel movements. These compounds work by irritating the intestinal lining, increasing fluid secretion, and accelerating the transit time of stool. Senna leaf has been used for centuries as a natural remedy for constipation and to support digestive health.
Fun Fact
The use of Senna as a natural laxative dates back to ancient Egyptian times, where it was documented as a remedy for constipation. The plant's name is believed to have originated from the Arabic word "sana," meaning "to make well" or "to heal."
