About

Our Senna Leaves Organic are certified organic dried senna leaves (Senna alexandrina) from India, supplied as a cut leaf in 250g, 500g and 1kg packs, with bulk and wholesale quantities available. Senna is a well-known traditional herb, widely recognised as a strong, stimulating one, and it is usually prepared as a simple herbal tea. It is a potent herb, so please read the directions and cautions below before use. This product is sold as a food only.

As always, it's advisable to consult with healthcare professionals for personalised guidance on health concerns.

Directions of Use

*** A very potent herb. Read all cautions before use. ***

1. Start small: use ½ to 1 level teaspoon per cup (250ml).

2. Add water: pour over hot (not boiling) water.

3. Do not over-steep: infuse for 5-10 minutes at most. Longer steeping makes the tea stronger and may lead to cramping.

4. Strain and drink: many people take it in the evening, as senna is traditionally taken some hours before its effects are expected.

5. Safety: for short-term use only (no more than 7 consecutive days). Do not use if pregnant, breastfeeding, or if you have a digestive condition such as IBS or Crohn's disease. Speak with a healthcare professional before use.

Organic Senna Leaves - FAQs

Common questions about our certified organic senna leaves, answered.

What are organic senna leaves?

Senna leaves are the dried leaflets of the senna plant (Senna alexandrina, which you may also see listed under the older name Cassia angustifolia). Ours are certified organic, grown in India and supplied as a cut dried leaf for making herbal tea. It is a food-grade botanical, not a supplement, tablet or extract.

Where can I buy organic senna leaves in Australia?

You can buy them right here from The Herbal Connection, a family-run Australian business. Choose 250g, 500g or 1kg above and shipping options and costs are shown at checkout. We also supply bulk and wholesale quantities to naturopaths, health food stores and manufacturers.

Are these senna leaves certified organic?

Yes. This is a single-ingredient certified organic product: 100% organic senna leaves, with nothing added. You can see the Certified Organic badge on this page, and we can supply documentation to wholesale customers on request.

How do I prepare senna leaf tea?

Place ½ to 1 level teaspoon of leaves in a cup, pour over hot (not boiling) water and steep for 5-10 minutes at most. Strain and drink. Do not over-steep, as a longer infusion is stronger and may cause cramping.

How much senna leaf should I use?

Senna is a potent herb, so start with the smallest amount (½ teaspoon per cup) and use it for the short term only, no more than 7 consecutive days. This is a general guide and not personal advice, so please speak with a healthcare professional before use.

Is senna safe? What are the possible side effects?

Senna is a strong herb and is not suitable for everyone or for long-term use. Cramping and loose stools are commonly reported, particularly with strong or over-steeped tea. Do not use it if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or have a digestive condition such as IBS or Crohn's disease, and keep it away from children. Check with your doctor, pharmacist or other healthcare professional first, especially if you take any medication.

What is senna leaf traditionally used for?

Senna has a long history of traditional herbal use and is one of the best-known stimulating herbs. We sell it as a food only and do not make health or therapeutic claims. If you are interested in how it might fit your own circumstances, a qualified practitioner is the right person to ask.

Is organic senna leaf powder stronger than the whole leaves?

We would not assume so, and we can't make that comparison for you. Powder is simply milled finer, so it disperses and infuses differently from a cut leaf, and the same cautions apply to both. If you prefer powder, we also stock Senna Leaves Powder Organic. Either way, start small and speak with a healthcare professional.

Do you sell organic senna leaves in bulk or wholesale?

Yes. We supply organic senna leaves in bulk to naturopaths, health food stores and food manufacturers, and there is no minimum order. Contact us on 07 5451 8780 or sales@herbalconnection.com.au for bulk pricing, or set up a wholesale account.
