About Nature’s Sunshine LB Extract

Digestive regularity is essential for maintaining overall wellness and comfort. Nature’s Sunshine LB Extract combines traditional herbs that have been valued for centuries to support healthy intestinal function and encourage regular elimination. This time-tested liquid formula brings together ten carefully selected botanical ingredients in a concentrated extract that provides gentle yet effective digestive support.

The foundation of this formula rests on three primary herbs known for their traditional use in supporting digestive regularity: cascara sagrada bark, senna leaves, and buckthorn bark. Cascara sagrada, which means “sacred bark” in Spanish, was traditionally used by Native American tribes for centuries before becoming widely recognized in conventional medicine. This remarkable bark contains naturally occurring compounds called anthraquinone glycosides that help support healthy bowel function by encouraging natural intestinal muscle contractions.

The Science Behind Traditional Herbal Support

The herbs in LB Extract work through gentle, natural mechanisms to support digestive wellness. Senna leaves and buckthorn bark contain similar compounds to cascara sagrada, working synergistically to encourage proper elimination. These traditional herbs support the natural rhythmic contractions of the intestinal muscles, helping to maintain healthy bowel movements without harsh stimulation.

Psyllium seed hulls add important fiber content to this formula, providing bulk that helps support healthy stool formation and comfortable elimination. This soluble fiber source has been valued for generations as a gentle way to support digestive regularity while maintaining intestinal comfort.

Supportive Herbs for Digestive Comfort

Beyond the primary active herbs, LB Extract includes several botanicals traditionally used to support digestive comfort and overall intestinal wellness. Licorice root has been prized for thousands of years not only for its distinctive flavor but also for its ability to support both respiratory and digestive function. This versatile herb helps provide a soothing influence on the digestive system.

Slippery elm bark contributes its mucilaginous properties, providing a gentle, coating effect that supports tissue comfort throughout the digestive tract. This traditional Native American remedy has been used for centuries to support digestive wellness and comfort.

The formula also includes ginger rhizome, well-known for its ability to support digestive comfort and help maintain healthy digestive function. Alfalfa aerial parts contribute essential vitamins and minerals, while rhubarb root and barberry bark add their own traditional digestive support properties to round out this comprehensive herbal blend.

The liquid format also makes it easy to adjust dosing as needed and provides an excellent option for those who have difficulty swallowing pills. This makes LB Extract particularly suitable for families, as it can be safely used by both adults and children over 4 years of age with appropriate dosing.
