Senna Leaves Cut is a dried cut senna leaf traditionally used as a stimulant laxative for short-term relief of occasional constipation. It works by stimulating intestinal movement, with an effect usually expected several hours after use. Senna is a strong, purposeful herb and should not be used as a casual daily tea. The cut leaf format is suitable for hot infusions, cold infusions and tincture-style preparations where careful use is understood.

♡ Why we love it: Senna leaves are straightforward, traditional and purposeful. They are best used only when short-term constipation support is needed, and the cut format is easy to steep and strain.

This product is certified: Vegan and Food Grade.

Also available in large pack sizes.
