Cascara Bark whole 20 lbs

Cascara bark, obtained from the dried and aged bark of the Cascara sagrada tree (Rhamnus purshiana), is notable for its historical use as a natural laxative. Native to North America, particularly in the Pacific Northwest, this deciduous tree's bark contains compounds called anthraquinones that stimulate bowel movements. Cascara bark has been employed traditionally for its mild and effective laxative properties, aiding in the relief of constipation. Over the years, it has found application in herbal remedies for digestive health. However, it is essential to use cascara bark cautiously, as excessive or prolonged use may lead to dependency or undesirable side effects.
