The product itself contains dairy and soy. Also, Cascara Sagrada should not be taken for a long period of time. Because the proprietary blend only lists that it is 624 mg and does not disclose the amounts of each of the ingredients, there is no way to know how much of this unsafe ingredient this product contains.
How Do You Use Nature’s Secret Super Cleanse?
The product label recommends adults to drink 8-10 glasses of water a day and start with one tablet in the morning and another one in the evening. You can increase the intake by one tablet every other day until you achieve 2-3 formed bowel movements per day, however, you cannot exceed three tablets twice per day. Once you determine the optimum number of tablets that work for you, you can take this amount for thirty days only. This product is not intended for long-term use.
Individuals who need medical supervision, or are pregnant or nursing should consult with their doctor before using this product. It is not meant for individuals under 18 years of age. A physician should be consulted if you are using any sort of medication including diuretics, heart medications, and corticosteroids or suffer from any medical conditions. Do not use if you have an intestinal obstruction, hemorrhoids or other intestinal disorder. It is advised not to use this product in conjunction with any product that has laxative effects.
Finally, one of the ingredients in this product, Cascara Sagrada, belongs to a family of plants containing compounds with laxative effects. Cascara Sagrada can also worsen diarrhea, loose stools or abdominal pain. This can lead to dehydration as well as electrolyte loss. If taken without breaks, this particular ingredient may interfere with diagnostic imaging procedures of the colon. This product contains a chemical that can cause birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Is There a Guarantee?
The manufacturer does not offer a money-back guarantee which is unfortunate as competitive products do come with risk-free buying options which allow consumers to try a product with a full satisfaction.
The Conclusion of Our Nature’s Secret Super Cleanse Review
This product is certainly decent enough on one level, but we end up feeling more concerned about recommending its use with the multitude of warning labels. Moreover, the ingredient list is just way too long and it does not even contain Psyllium Husk, Oats, Prunes and Apple Pectin nor a probiotic which we would have been sure would have been included. Nor does Nature’s Secret offer a money-back guarantee which speaks to lack of confidence by the manufacturer in their product. This cleanse seems to be more trouble than it’s worth, with risk written all over it, and therefore we recommend you pass on this one.
