Cascara Sagrada, meaning “sacred bark” in Spanish, is a time-honored herbal remedy derived from the bark of the Rhamnus purshiana tree, native to North America’s Pacific Northwest. Traditionally used by Indigenous peoples and later embraced by Western herbalists, this potent herb is best known for its ability to gently relieve constipation and stimulate natural bowel movements without harsh or irritating effects.
Key Benefits:
Digestive & Intestinal Health:
Natural Laxative: Stimulates peristalsis (the muscle contractions that move waste through the colon) for gentle, effective relief from occasional constipation.
Colon Cleanser: Helps eliminate waste and reduce toxic buildup in the digestive tract.
Restores Bowel Tone: Supports long-term digestive health by strengthening and regulating colon function.
Prepares the Body for Detox: Often used as a pre-cleanse to support herbal detox or fasting programs.
Liver & Gallbladder Support:
Stimulates Bile Flow: Assists with digestion and fat metabolism by promoting healthy bile secretion.
How to Use:
As a Tea (Decoction):
Add 1 tsp of dried Cascara Sagrada bark to 1 cup of water.
Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10–15 minutes.
