Dr. Feb's Analysis
Scientific Mechanism
The primary active agent in this formula is Senna (Cassia senna/Cassia angustifolia). At a cellular level, the active compounds, known as sennosides (specifically sennoside A and B), are classified as stimulant laxatives. These compounds are not absorbed in the upper gastrointestinal tract. Upon reaching the colon, gut bacteria metabolize sennosides into active anthrones. These anthrones irritate the colonic mucosa and stimulate peristalsis (involuntary muscle contractions). This action increases fluid secretion into the bowel lumen while inhibiting fluid absorption, resulting in softer stool and accelerated transit time.
Key Benefits
Key benefits include:
- Relief from occasional constipation
- Reduction of abdominal bloating
- Support for regular bowel movements
- Short-term detoxification support
Usage & Safety
Dosage: The standard serving size is 0.5 mL. Best Practices: Take with a full glass of water to aid absorption and effectiveness. It is generally recommended to take this supplement at bedtime so it works overnight. Safety Interactions: Do not use if you have diarrhea, loose stools, or abdominal pain. Senna may worsen these conditions. Consult a physician if you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition. Do not use for longer than 7-10 days without medical supervision.
