It is useful to give some information about Coffee senna, which is known to be influenced by the immune system and said to have great effect in the destruction of the parasites in your body. New information is being published every day for Coffee Senna, the debate that has been going on in recent years and its benefits can not be fully predicted. We also want to transmit to you the truth.
Vernacular names include : ʻauʻaukoʻi in Hawaii, septicweed, coffee senna, coffeeweed, Mogdad coffee, negro-coffee, senna coffee, Stephanie coffee, stinkingweed or styptic weed.
The plant is locally called Bana Chakunda in Odisha, India.
The species was formerly placed in the genus Cassia.
The plant is reported to be poisonous to cattle. The plant contains anthraquinones. The roots contain emodin and the seeds contain chrysarobin (1,8-dihydroxy-3-methyl-9-anthrone) and N-methylmorpholine.
In Jamaica the seeds are roast, brew and serve as tea to treat Diuretic, hemorrhoids, gout, laxative, rheumatism, diabetes, rheumatis.
Mogdad coffee seeds can be roasted and used as a substitute for coffee. They have also been used as an adulterant for coffee. There is apparently no caffeine in mogdad coffee.
Despite the claims of being poisonous, the leaves of this plant, Dhiguthiyara in the Maldivian language, have been used in the diet of the Maldives for centuries[8] in dishes such as mas huni and also as a medicinal plant.
Almost all parts (leaf, root, seeds) of the plant are used as food and medicine by tribal populations in India. However, consumption of Bana Chakunda seeds has been identified as a possible cause of death of tribal children due to acute Encephalopathy (see Acute HME syndrome). Once the plant was identified as the cause, the number of deaths plummeted.
The same thing happened in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil where 16 outbreaks were recorded. which was a record in comparison to the clinical study of 1979 at which 8 calves died after contracting dyspnea, neutrophilia and tachycardia from consumption of the plant.
