*Cascara sagrada is a natural herbal laxative made from the reddish-brown bark of a tree (Rhamnus purshiana). It contains compounds called anthroquinones, which trigger contractions in the colon, causing the urge to have a bowel movement. Cascara sagrada can be found in various forms such as capsules, liquid extracts, and dried bark, which, when made into tea, can taste very bitter.
