Cascara Sagrada 5000 mg
Nature's Answer
Overview
The effectiveness of Cascara Sagrada as a laxative is recognized for short-term use, however, modern clinical evidence supporting its safety and efficacy for chronic use is lacking, leading to regulatory withdrawals. The product's primary ingredient is present in a substantial amount (5000 mg equivalent), but issues around long-term safety and broader efficacy remain.

Uses a natural, herbal ingredient traditionally known for laxative effects.
