The dandelion is a commonly used herbal remedy. It is especially effective and valuable as a non-potassium depleting diuretic because it contains high levels of potassium salts and therefore can replace the potassium that is lost from the body when diuretics are used. fluid retention, cystitis, hepatitis induced ascites (abnormal accumulation of fluid in the stomach), and water retention due to heart problems. The roots act as an antiviral agent, digestive aid, and may help promote gastrointestinal health. Dandelion is helpful with digestive disturbances and increases bile flow (cholagogue and choleretic).

Great quality and fresh smelling. I like that there is some root mixed in. I have been doing your recipe, but just adding some cranberry and lemon juice and drinking it iced is good.
