| The dried, aged bark of this tree has been
used continuously for at least 1,000 years by both native and immigrant
Americans as a laxative natural medicine, commercially called "Cascara
Sagrada", but old timers call it "chitticum bark".
Cascara Sagrada means "sacred bark" in Spanish. The much more pertinent name
chitticum means "sh*t come" in Chinook Jargon; chittam comes from the
Chinook Jargon phrase chittam stick = "laxative tree" which is similarly
from the English word "sh*t". [more] |
Long used as a laxative by Native American groups of the
northwest Pacific coast, chitticum bark or Cascara Sagrada was accepted in
medical practice in the United States in 1877, and by 1890 had replaced the
berries of the European Buckthorn (R. catharticus) as a commonly used
laxative. It has been the principal ingredient in many commercial,
over-the-counter laxatives in North American pharmacies.On 9 May 2002, the
U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued a final rule banning the use of
aloe and cascara sagrada as laxative ingredients in over-the-counter drug
products.
The bark is harvested mostly from wild trees; over-harvesting
in the middle 1900s eliminated mature trees near many settled areas. Once
stripped from the tree, the bark is aged for about 1 year to make its effect
milder. Fresh cut, dried bark causes vomiting and violent diarrhea.
