Alder Buckthorn Powder

Other Names: Dog Wood, Arrow Wood, Black Dogwood, European Buckthorn, Frangula Bark, Alder Dogwood, Glossy Buckthorn, Rhamnus frangula

Historically used as a laxative by Native Americans, Alder Buckthorn Powder is commonly used in supplements designed for colon cleansing and the digestive tract. Alder Buckthorn Powder increases the amount of water in stool and is especially used for constipation and related issues.

Made from the bark of alder buckthorn, which is more commonly known as the dogwood shrub, Alder Buckthorn Powder can cause vomiting if it is not cured properly. If done naturally, the bark of the Alder Buckthorn is cut and must be dried for at least a year before use, and may then be ground into powder for supplements.
