INCI: Rhamnus frangula

Frangula Bark, also called buckthorn bark, is a traditional herbal laxative used in short-term routines for occasional constipation. It is commonly prepared as a covered infusion and taken at bedtime for a gentle next-morning result. The bulk format suits those who prepare measured servings and prefer to keep a larger amount on hand. This herb is intended for brief use rather than ongoing daily routines.

This product is certified: Vegan and Food Grade.
