Tasting Note & Distinctive Features
Ranawara (Senna auriculata) is an evergreen plant whose flower, immature fruit, leaves, stem, and root are commonly used to treat diabetes, eye infections, joint and muscle pain, liver disease, and urinary tract disorders. It also helps lose weight and shapes your body. Ranawara tea is a popular herbal remedy used to treat constipation and hemorrhoids due to its laxative properties. Senna glycosides, or sennosides, are the main active compounds in Ranawara leaves that act as a stimulant laxative that can stimulate the lining of the intestine to speed the movement of stool through the colon. Ranawara can also be used as a vermifuge to kill parasites and expel worms from the intestine. The essential oils and tannins in Ranawara leaves help to reduce skin inflammation.
