Cascara Sagrada: Product Information
Today, the bark is aged or cured,
and then ground into a powder, before
it is used in commercial preparations.
The use of cascara sagrada for constipation
is approved in The Complete
German Commission E Monographs,
and is recognized as a safe and effective
herb by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration and Health Canada.
Promotes fast, gentle results
Cascara sagrada has been tested in
a number of clinical trials for its value
in thorough, yet gentle cleansing of the
colon. Clinical researchers have isolated several
anthraquinone glycosides which are the compounds
that stimulate laxative activity. These active substances
promote blood circulation and nerve center
stimulation, causing increased peristalsis, the vigorous
wavelike contractions of the large intestine that keep
food moving through the digestive system, and trigger
a laxative effect. When the process speeds up, the body
produces a softer, quicker bowel movement because the
intestine has had less time to absorb liquid from the
stool.
Cascara sagrada is considered one of the safest laxatives
that can be used to tone the colon. It is also valued
for its usefulness in detoxification and colon
cleansing, and has been used in cleansing programs
prior to surgery or bowel exam. Studies have shown
that cascara sagrada is especially gentle and effective in
easing chronic constipation in elderly people.
Combined with conventional measures to soften the
stool, such as adding plenty of fiber to the diet, as well as
water and exercise, the use of cascara sagrada makes
sense for the relief of occasional constipation, and it can
prevent the pressure and pain associated with hemorrhoids
and anal fissures. In fact, by speeding up the bowel
movements, hemorrhoids may be less likely to develop.
