Product Overview

These metabolites are partially absorbed in the colon which stimulates peristalsis and normal healthy evacuation of the bowel. This herb is recommended for occasional constipation. Cascara should not be taken by those with digestive or bowel conditions when pain, nausea and vomiting are present.
