Ingredients
- 1 pound prunes
- 4 ounces senna tea leaves
- 1 pound raisins
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 pound figs

Pro tip:
If eating the recommended amount doesn’t result in a bowel movement, increase the daily serving. If the fruit paste induces very loose stools, reduce serving or eat it every other day.
Directions
- Prepare tea using 2 ½ cups water, steep five minutes
- Strain tea to remove tea leaves, combine 2 cups liquid and fruit in a large pot.
- Boil fruit and tea for 5 minutes
