What Is Senna?
Senna is a plant whose scientific name is Cassia angustifolia. It belongs to the Caesalpiniaceae family and is also known as Indian Senna or Sonamukhi in local languages. The leaves and pods of the plant contain active compounds called sennosides, which are well known for their laxative effect. Senna has been used in Ayurvedic medicine, traditional Arabian medicine, and modern pharmaceutical preparations for centuries.
The plant grows to a height of one to two feet and thrives in sandy loam soil under full sun. The leaves are light green in colour and the pods are flat and oval. Both the leaves and the pods are harvested, dried, and processed into different product forms to meet the needs of various industries.

Uses and Benefits of Senna Products
Senna has a wide range of uses across industries. In the pharmaceutical sector, it is used to make laxative drugs and treatments for constipation. It is one of the few plant-based laxatives that has been studied and approved for use in modern medicine. The sennosides in senna stimulate the muscles of the large intestine, promoting bowel movement in a natural way.
In traditional Ayurvedic medicine, senna leaves are used to treat a broader range of conditions including indigestion, loss of appetite, skin diseases, jaundice, anaemia, and malaria. When made into a paste and applied to the skin, senna leaves have been used to manage various skin ailments and aid wound healing.
In the herbal tea and wellness industry, senna is one of the most popular ingredients in detox and cleanse teas. It is also used in capsule and tablet form by nutraceutical companies. Some soap and skin care brands include it for its skin soothing properties.

What to Check When Buying Senna
When buying senna leaves or pods, always check the colour. Good senna leaves are light green. The sennoside content is a key quality indicator and should be stated on the product specification sheet. Moisture content should be below 8 to 10 percent for shelf stability. Always ask the supplier for a Certificate of Analysis and a product sample before placing a bulk order. A trusted supplier will have no problem providing these.
