About This Product

Meaning "sacred bark" in Spanish, cascara sagrada has been used for centuries by Native American tribes of the Pacific Northwest and was later adopted by mainstream medicine as an official laxative. Its active compounds — anthraquinone glycosides called cascarosides — gently stimulate peristalsis in the large intestine, encouraging natural, comfortable elimination without harsh cramping. It also supports bile production and liver function, making it a valuable herb for overall digestive cleansing. This tincture is taken orally — typically 15–30 drops three times a day. Advantages over teas: no refrigeration needed, remains potent for many years, takes up little storage space, and is fast and easy to use. Quickly absorbed by the body and easy to travel with.
