🌿 Indian Senna (Sonamukhi) – A Natural Ayurvedic Laxative
Indian Senna, commonly known as Sonamukhi, is a leguminous herb (Botanical name: Cassia angustifolia) extensively cultivated in southern India for its medicinal pods and leaves. It holds a prominent place in both Ayurveda and modern medicine, especially for its natural laxative effects.
Senna leaves are rich in anthraquinones and sennosides, which are the key active compounds responsible for its bowel-regulating action. These compounds gently stimulate intestinal movement by relaxing and smoothing the intestinal walls, helping food pass through more efficiently.
In Ayurveda, Senna is used to:
✔️ Relieve constipation
✔️ Eliminate vitiated and putrefied Pitta
✔️ Ease fever associated with excess Pitta dosha
This makes Sonamukhi a reliable remedy for digestive cleansing and Pitta-related disorders, when used under proper guidance.
