Rhubarb (Rheum palmatum L.) is a medicinal plant used as a herbal remedy and is edible, for example, in sweet pies. This plant is a powerful stimulant and digestive aid, used to treat gastric disorders accompanied by constipation.
Rhubarb is composed of molecules called glycosides, which act as prodrugs. Since they are neither absorbed nor altered in the gastrointestinal tract, they are degraded by anthrone enzymes from colon bacteria. These enzymes act by reducing fluid absorption and increasing colon motility, helping with constipation.
