Some of the other claimed benefits are digestive health and an antioxidant powerhouse.

Cassia Seed tea has been very popular in Asia for a few hundred years but still not widely known to the western world after being spread from its origins in India. The seeds are said to be an exceptional tonic for the bowel, liver and kidney, high in anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties and can help with weight loss. The seeds are said to be really good for digestive health and have the ability to maintain a healthy digestive system but at the same time get rid of unwanted toxins.
