BulkSupplements.com
Overview
Turkey Rhubarb Root Extract is primarily effective as a laxative due to its anthraquinone content. The extract stimulates bowel movements by increasing water and electrolyte secretion in the intestines. While there's some preliminary evidence for anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects, its primary clinical applicability is for constipation relief. The laxative effect typically occurs within 6-12 hours after ingestion. Clinical studies reported a standardized mean difference of 0.73 in favor of herbal laxatives including Turkey Rhubarb compared to placebo for constipation.
