Description

Approximately 2 Cups Loose

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).  Dandelion has antioxidant properties, and is a rich source of vitamins A, B complex, C, and D, as well as minerals such as iron, potassium, and zinc. Dandelion is a good choice for when taking other herbs for weight loss with a desire to flush fat. As with all diuretics, drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration.All parts of the plant are aperient, cholagogue, depurative, strongly diuretic, hepatic, laxative, stomachic and tonic. It is one of our favorite herbs for cleansing the body.

    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.
