Answer
Senna is like a purgative. It purges your bowles rather harshly It mae me sick for three days. They should mix it with other herbs like peppermint.  It does not aid digestion.  I would be careful. You may lose weight but too fast and not very comfortably.  I personally have stayed away from senna for many years and recomment to my clients to do the same.  Sorry.  I would look for a diuretic tea with dandelion.  Water weight is easier to shed.  Jayne
