Benefits of Cascara Sagrada Extrac

1. Gentle, Natural Laxative
   Cascara’s active compounds (anthraquinones like emodin) stimulate intestinal contractions, supporting bowel movements without harsh synthetic chemicals. Studies suggest it may be as effective as OTC laxatives but with a milder action (Journal of Ethnopharmacology).

2. Gut Microbiome Support
   Emerging research indicates Cascara may act as a prebiotic, fostering beneficial gut bacteria (e.g., Bifidobacterium), crucial for long-term digestive wellness.

3. Liver & Detox Aid
   Traditional use links Cascara to liver detoxification by promoting bile flow, aiding toxin elimination.

4. Rich in Antioxidants
   The extract contains polyphenols that combat oxidative stress, potentially reducing inflammation in the digestive tract.
