Alexandrian Senna Pods Handpicked

Description

Latin Name : Senna Alexandrina

Origin Country: India

Senna is an herb that is generally used for its laxative properties. It works by interacting with the bacteria in the digestive track, resulting in intestinal contractions. These contractions are caused by the anthraquinone that is contained in senna.

• Treating Constipation: Eating senna leaf or drinking senna leaf tea will encourage bowel movements. The leaf causes the walls of your large intestine to contract, which will push stools through your system. Because of this ability, senna leaf is helpful in relieving constipation, often leading to bowel movements within six to 12 hours after ingestion.

• Anti-inflammatory Agent: Senna leaf is a natural anti-inflammatory substance. While this has general health benefits, it also makes senna useful in relieving some symptoms associated with hemorrhoids.

 

Steep 1-2 grams (0.5-1 teaspoon) of dried senna pods in hot water for a maximum of 10 minutes. Strain in a cup and add your favourite sweetener as per taste. Do not have more than twice in one day.

Senna is LIKELY SAFE for most adults and children over age 2 when taken by mouth, short-term.. Senna can cause some side effects including stomach discomfort, cramps, and diarrhea. Senna is POSSIBLY UNSAFE when taken by mouth long-term or in high doses. Don't use senna for more than two weeks. Longer use can cause the bowels to stop functioning normally and might cause dependence on laxatives. Long-term use can also change the amount or balance of some chemicals in the blood (electrolytes) that can cause heart function disorders, muscle weakness, liver damage, and other harmful effects.
