Cascara Sagrada Bark Powder
Cascara Sagrada Bark Powder is a wildcrafted powder made from the bark of the Rhamnus purshiana plant. This North American plant has been traditionally used as a natural laxative. The bark is dried and ground into a powder which can be used as a dietary supplement or ingredient in herbal preparations. It is commonly used for constipation and to soften stools, but also for other gut-related issues such as diarrhea and IBS.
