Anyone know about "Slow Tea" laxative



Recommended Posts

NP at bariatric center said a lot of patients find this laxative "Slow Tea" effective. I have tried, psyllium Fiber, Miralax and stool softeners. Fiber produces large, bulky, hard-to-pass stool. Nothing helps. My constipation is due to medications I take.

This is what I use nightly. Senna is the ingredient you need. download_20200131_180213.jpg

Smooth Move been using it for over twenty years and no dependence developed. Before surgery I was regular and using the tea maybe once a week. I’m having a hard time now simply because my body is freaking out. lol

Here’s a pic of the box. They sell it everywhere-GNC, Walmart, Target, Walgreens, Whole Foods, and many grocery stores

My GI doctor said if used often, this tea dyes your GI system dark BLACK. She's done a number of EGD and colonoscopy where she could not see anything but black tissue. I don't know how long it takes for the tissue to return to normal color.

I used this once and had cramping and diarrhea in the morning for over an hour. Probably not for me.
