Senna is a plant belonging to the legume family, known for its medicinal properties. The leaves and pods of the Senna plant are commonly used as a natural laxative to treat constipation. It works by stimulating the muscles in the intestines, promoting bowel movements. Senna is often found in herbal supplements and teas. While it can be effective for short-term use, prolonged consumption may lead to dependency or other side effects. It is important to consult a healthcare professional before using Senna, especially for individuals with underlying health conditions or those taking other medications.
