BIOEVACULINE®

Based on dry extracts of Senna leaves, Rhubarb and flower extracts (lavender, Peppermint leaves, Oregano, Rosemary, Lemon Verbena and Mugwort aerial parts), Bioévaculine® is designed to support the management of transit disorders and to be a short-term ally in cases of occasional constipation with flatulence and abdominal pain.

Senna is a plant native to the desert areas of the Arabian Peninsula (Yemen) and Africa (Somalia), already used in the 9th century by Arab doctors. Transmitted to Europeans, senna served, during the 18th century, as a purgative and astringent. The leaves of this plant are rich in anthracene B derivatives, naphthalene derivatives and sennoside flavonoids.

The interest of hydroxyanthracenic derivatives in improving transit is based on 2 different mechanisms:

• stimulation of intestinal peristalsis
• improved stool hydration

Rhubarb also contains naphthalene derivatives which promote the normal functioning of the stomach. The flower extracts constitute a powerful antispasmodic mixture for an anticholinergic effect and inhibitor of calcium channels, thus allowing relaxation of the intestinal smooth muscles.
