Senna extract is a shrub found in India, Pakistan, South China and elsewhere, derived from the Arabic word “sena”. The alternate leaves are even-pinnate, with four or five pairs of lanceolate or obovate leaflets that are brittle and greyish green in colour. The small yellow flowers are characterized by five spreading clawed petals. The fruit is in an oblong pod about 5cm long. The leaves and pods, or fruit, are used medicinally in China for more than thousand years as herb laxative.
In 2010, “Pharmacognosy Research” published an article that found senna leaf extract stopped parasite mobility during a cell-line study. The extract was also used to treat parasite infections in rats, and scientists found that parasite levels were significantly lower after a six-day period when the rats were given the extract daily.
