CASSISASOL is a food supplement based on plant extracts and Propolis. Senna contributes to the regularity of intestinal transit. Cinnamon and Carnation flowers contribute to digestive function, to the elimination of intestinal gas and to the regularity of intestinal transit.
SUGGESTIONS OF USE: it's recommended to take 2 tablets, taken with water, 15 minutes before going to bedtime.
WARNINGS: Keep out of reach of children under three years. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. The product should be used in a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
NOTES ON SOME PLANTS: SENNA (Cassia angustifolia) is a typically refreshing and laxative plant, for it’s rich in glucose and especially fructose (anthraquinone glycosides - sennosides - mucilage, flavonoids). It is particularly recommended for children, old people and pregnant women. The plant has got an elective tropism toward large intestine to which causes activation of peristalsis. Its active principles are, for the most part, absorbed in the small intestine, going to act on the peristaltic action of the colon after arriving there via blood and lymph. RHUBARB (Rheum officinale) can promote normal intestinal transit. Because of its ability to evacuate the bile it is also used for liver . Of this plant, we use its rhizome. CINNAMON (Cinnamomum zeylanicum) is used for its bark in younger trees; it contains substances that help digestion. CLOVES (Eugenia caryophyllata) have got an essence in which we can find a phenolic terpene called eugenol, which gives rise to a marked analgesic and hypoanesthetic action (G. FASSINA, Lezioni di Farmacognosia, PAdova, 1965, p. 182). It was also recently confirmed the antiseptic action of these volatile components showing a marked bacteriostatic action (BENIGNI-CAPRA, piante medicinali.). PROPOLIS has antiseptic, antibiotic-like and anti-flu properties. Propolis is produced by bees reworking, through glandular secretions and enzymes, gummy and resinous substance they are used to collect. Different substances are contained in it; here we will list the followings: 50-60% resins and balsams, 30-40% wax, 5-10% essential oils and 5% pollen. After this division of substances that make up the propolis, we are going to see its active ingredients: flavonoids (galangin, quercetin, etc..), Aldehydes (vanillin, etc..) Coumarins, phenolic acid, trace elements and vitamins B1, B2, B6 and C.
