Product Introduction

The word "dandelion" derives from the French "dent de lion," meaning lion's tooth. The jagged edges of the plant's shiny, smooth leaves account for its fierce-sounding name. Dandelion is one of the safest and most popular herbal remedies, and it is edible in their entirety. Dandelions, flowers, roots and leaves, have been used for centuries in traditional medicine & medicinal teas, most notably for liver detoxification, as a natural diuretic and for inflammation reduction. Dandelion leaves are believed to have a diuretic effect as they increase salt and water excretion from the kidneys Unlike other diuretics, dandelion leaves contain potassium, a mineral that is often lost during increased urination. There is also evidence that this property of dandelion leaves may normalize blood sugar. Dandelion is even being explored as a treatment for cancer and other conditions.
