Buckthorn
Hawaii Pharm
Overview
Buckthorn bark extract is primarily effective as a short-term remedy for constipation due to its anthraquinone content. Limited research supports other potential health benefits. Efficacy is dependent on the metabolism of anthraquinone glycosides by gut bacteria, which stimulates bowel movements. However, high-quality studies are lacking to confirm these effects beyond its traditional use as a laxative.
