What Is Cascara Sagrada?
Cascara Sagrada is an herbal ingredient derived from the bark of the Rhamnus purshiana tree. It has a long history of traditional use as a natural stimulant laxative.
Cascara Sagrada works by stimulating intestinal activity, which can help promote bowel movements. Because of this pharmacological effect, it should not be treated like an everyday nutritional supplement.
