Senna (Cassia senna, Cassia Acutifolia) is a laxative herb of the leaves and pods of the senna shrub that grows in India, Pakistan, North Africa, and China. From time immemorial mankind discovered and adopted Senna for medicinal application. For centuries physicians used Senna, long considered a “cleansing herb,” as a laxative in northern Africa, India, China, and throughout South-western Asia almost exclusively to treat constipation.

While research botanists recorded African & Arabian Senna as the finest specimen, distinct from the adulterated mixtures exported during colonial travel, the two most widely exported today and officially recognised are Cassia acutifolia and Cassia angustifolia (India or Tinnevelly Senna).

Cassia acutifolia, yielding the finest and most valuable variety of the drug is a small shrub about 2 feet high
