Senna Leaf Extract Powder

About The Detailed Introduction Of Senna Leaf Extract?

Senna Leaf Extract Powder is a natural plant extract extracted from senna (Botanical name: Cassia angustifolia Vahl). Senna, also known as Asian cassia or Indian cassia, is a common herb found mainly in India, Egypt, and Pakistan. It is mainly obtained through water-soluble or alcohol-soluble extraction of senna leaves. It usually comes in the form of powder, liquid or concentrate and can be used in a variety of fields such as medicine, nutraceuticals, cosmetics and food.
Senna extract contains a variety of active ingredients, the most important of which are (Sennosides). Sennosides are natural laxatives that promote intestinal motility and increase the frequency of bowel movements. It can stimulate the nerve endings in the colon wall and accelerate intestinal peristalsis, thereby achieving a laxative effect.

Senna is a shrub that grows in India, Pakistan, southern China, and many other places. Its name is derived from the Arabic word "sena" and has been used in ancient Indian and Greek medicine since the 9th century. The shrub grows to about two feet tall and has green stems, pods, and yellow spade-shaped leaves. Its alternate leaves are evergreen, with four to five pairs of lanceolate or obovate gray-green fragile leaflets. The flowers are small, yellow, with five clawed, ragged petals. The fruit is wrapped in rectangular pods about 5cm long. The leaves and pods or fruits are used medicinally.
