OMG beware!!! the first and last time i took it was a nightmare. i got it directly from david wolfe so it's not like i didn't have good instructions on how to use it either. senna tea is nice and gentle, prune juice works great too. take it easy with the cassia, it's scary business.

which one of them do you advise? My husband is very interested in the cassia pods,and I would like to try too,but if senna is better...well,what do you think?
and if we try cassia,how many seeds could we eat?
