Senna is a herb that is generally popular for its laxative properties. The plant has been used in India for thousands of years as a laxative and it is an FDA-approved nonprescription laxative that is used to treat constipation and also to clear the bowel before diagnostic tests.

Senna contains glycosides which are a group of organic blends that are commonly found in plants. These compounds work as a laxative by smoothing the muscles as digested food moves through the intestines.

Despite its medical properties the taste and scent of this herbal tea can convince you for a try!
