Laxative & Purgative Herbs

Purgative Herbs are used for stimulating the action of evacuating the bowels. This action may be mild or strong depending on the need. They increase bowel movements and are a cure for constipation.

Laxatives are mild purgatives which act as stool softeners and are used to relieve constipation.

All herbs should be used with caution. You should consult your healthcare practitioner before using these herbs.
