SENE Organic dried leaves
Dried senna leaves are obtained from the Senna alexandrina plant, an herb that has been used traditionally for its laxative and purgative properties. Senna leaves contain natural compounds, such as anthraquinones, which may stimulate bowel movement and help temporarily relieve occasional constipation.
Uses:
- Natural Laxative: Senna leaves are often used as a natural laxative to treat mild to moderate constipation. They work by increasing intestinal motility and promoting the elimination of waste from the body.
- Occasional Cleansing: Some use senna leaves as part of colon cleansing programs to remove toxins and waste accumulated in the digestive system.
Preparation :
- To make herbal tea, pour hot water over 1 to 2 teaspoons of dried senna leaves. Let it steep for 10 to 15 minutes, then strain and consume.
- It is recommended to follow preparation and dosage instructions carefully, as excessive use may result in adverse effects such as severe abdominal cramping.
Warnings:
- Senna products are not suitable for prolonged use, as they can lead to dependence on the laxative.
- It is important to consult a healthcare professional before using senna leaves, especially if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking other medications, or have underlying health conditions.
Storage: Store dried senna leaves in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve their freshness and properties.
