THE HERBAL LAXATIVE TEA TRADITION
The herbs in this traditional Chinese formula help promote regularity and provide gentle, effective overnight relief.* These herbs were used to help support digestive system function and to promote the body’s normal process of detoxification.* Senna is an effective stimulant laxative that promotes bowel movements.* Rhubarb root and sickle-pod senna seed were considered milder stimulant laxatives that complement the effects of senna.* Ginger was used to lessen discomfort and cramping and to support digestive system function.* Licorice root, dandelion and fo-ti were used to help support healthy liver function, promote normal detoxification, build the “chi”, or energy, and promote balance.* Traditionally, the Chinese considered healthy digestion and elimination important for physical and mental well-being.* For additional support in cleansing, use this tea along with Triple Leaf Detox Tea.*
