Alfit #25 Buckthorn Bark: Natural Relief from Constipation

Optimized Text

Alfit #25 Buckthorn Bark offers a time-tested, natural solution for constipation and its related symptoms. This herbal remedy utilizes the laxative properties of buckthorn bark, working gently to stimulate bowel movements. Its effects are typically noticeable within 8-12 hours, providing long-lasting relief.

How it Works

The active compounds in buckthorn bark, anthraquinones (specifically anthraglycosides), stimulate the receptors in the large intestine, promoting bowel regularity. This natural process helps to relieve constipation, even chronic constipation associated with weakened abdominal muscles. Furthermore, buckthorn bark’s action on the digestive tract can contribute to the removal of toxins from the body, indirectly supporting blood health.

Uses and Benefits

Alfit #25 Buckthorn Bark is traditionally used to address a range of digestive issues, including:

• Constipation (chronic and acute)
• Hemorrhoids
• Spastic colitis
• Liver ailments
• Parasitic infections
• Body detoxification

Beyond internal use, buckthorn bark has also shown topical applications:

• Soaking for skin conditions like scabies and psoriasis
• Topical applications for acne, skin mites, and eczema
• Facial masks for skin rejuvenation

Precautions and Contraindications

While generally safe, Alfit #25 Buckthorn Bark is not suitable for everyone. Do not use if you:

• Have active gastrointestinal bleeding (including uterine bleeding)
