Important safety information - please read before use

Chaksu (Cassia / Senna absus) seed calls for several important cautions. Please read them carefully.

  • Pregnancy / fertility: do NOT use it during pregnancy - the seed has shown reproductive toxicity in animal studies (reduced fertility and lost pregnancies) and stimulates the uterus. Consult a qualified healthcare practitioner before use if you are breastfeeding, and use caution if you are trying to conceive.
  • Blood pressure: its alkaloids may lower blood pressure - use caution if you have low blood pressure or take blood-pressure medication.
  • Blood sugar: it may lower blood sugar - use caution if you have diabetes or take blood-sugar-lowering medication.
  • Digestive: it contains mild natural laxative compounds and can cause cramps or loose stools; do not use it if you have an obstructive bowel condition, and do not combine it with other laxatives or diuretics.
  • Dose: keep to short-term use and do not exceed the suggested serving.
  • Do not give it to infants or young children. Do not use it to self-treat any medical condition - see a qualified doctor instead. If you take any medication or have a medical condition, consult a qualified healthcare practitioner before use. Keep out of reach of children.

Frequently Asked Questions about Chaksu Extract
What is Chaksu (Cassia absus / Senna absus) seed extract?
Chaksu is a liquid extract of the dried seed of Cassia absus - whose accepted botanical name today is Senna absus (it has also been placed in the genus Chamaecrista) - a legume of the Fabaceae family, also called pig's senna or bitter senna. This alcohol-free version is a vegetable-glycerin glycerite. Two things matter most for safety: the seed has shown reproductive toxicity in animal studies and stimulates the uterus, so it must NOT be used in pregnancy; and it contains alkaloids (chaksine, isochaksine) that can lower blood pressure and blood sugar, plus mild natural laxative compounds. It is a different plant from the other "cassia/senna" herbs we carry. Please read the safety notes below.
What is the difference between the alcohol-free and tincture versions?
Both are liquid extracts of the same Cassia/Senna absus seed; only the solvent differs. This alcohol-free version is a glycerite made with vegetable glycerin and purified water, giving a milder carrier for those who prefer to avoid alcohol. The tincture uses organic alcohol with vegetable glycerin and water, the classic conventional method that yields a concentrated extract with a long shelf life. Choose the glycerite if you prefer no alcohol; choose the tincture for a traditional alcohol-extracted format. The seed inside is identical, and the same safety notes apply to both.
Is Chaksu the same as other cassia or senna herbs?
No - the cassia/senna group has many members that are easy to confuse, and we label each by species. Chaksu is Cassia absus (accepted name Senna absus). It is not Avaram (Senna auriculata), not sicklepod or Jue Ming Zi (Senna/Cassia obtusifolia), and not laxative senna (Senna alexandrina), although as a relative it does contain some of the same mild laxative anthraquinones. And, confusingly, "cassia" can also mean cassia cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia), a completely different plant - a cinnamon bark - which is unrelated. Chaksu also carries the older genus name Cassia and the alternative Chamaecrista absus; they all refer to the same seed. We label ours clearly so it is not mixed up with the others.
How do I use Chaksu liquid extract?
Shake well first. Use the number of drops and the frequency shown on the label, in a little water, tea or juice, or as directed by your practitioner. Do not exceed the suggested serving, and keep to short-term use. Because the seed has mild laxative activity, cut back if you notice loose stools. This alcohol-free glycerite has a milder carrier. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct light, and shake before each use.
Is Chaksu right for everyone? Safety information.
Please read this carefully. Pregnancy and fertility: do NOT use Chaksu during pregnancy - the seed has shown reproductive toxicity in animal studies (reduced fertility and lost pregnancies) and stimulates the uterus; consult a qualified healthcare practitioner before use if you are breastfeeding, and use caution if you are trying to conceive. Blood pressure: its alkaloids may lower blood pressure, so use caution if you have low blood pressure or take blood-pressure medication. Blood sugar: it may lower blood sugar, so use caution if you have diabetes or take blood-sugar-lowering medication. Digestive: it contains mild natural laxative compounds and can cause cramps or loose stools; do not use it if you have an obstructive bowel condition, and do not combine it with other laxatives or diuretics. Keep to short-term use and do not exceed the suggested serving. If you take any medication or have a medical condition, consult a qualified healthcare practitioner before use. Do not give it to infants or young children. Do not use it to self-treat eye, blood-pressure or blood-sugar problems - see a qualified doctor instead. Store as directed on the label. Keep out of reach of children. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
