Senna is a powerful natural laxative that can be used to promote the vigorous evacuation of the bowels and is also very helpful in relieving severe constipation and when an easily-passed stool is recommended prior to a colonoscopy or after rectal surgery. Use this herb in combination with warming, stimulating and antispasmodic herbs such as Ginger, Cloves, Fennel, Cinnamon or Coriander. When combined it can even be used for children, the elderly and sensitive individuals.
The herb has been officially listed in both the British Pharmacopoeia and the United States Pharmacopoeia, and it is one of the few herbal medicines approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for over-the-counter use and may be one of the most widely used herbal medicines in the United States.
Senna has been used to destroy and expel worms and parasites from the intestinal tract. And by cleansing the colon, it may have positive results in improving skin afflictions like pimples/acne, etc., and helping in cases of obesity. Internally it has been used to relieve malarial-type fevers and chills, biliousness, dyspepsia, stomach disorders, jaundice, diphtheria, fevers, and fissures.
