Dandelion Fresh Leaf and Flower Tincture (2 oz Bottle)

Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) Fresh Leaf and Flower Tincture

Dandelion leaf increases diuresis. Dandelion flower acts more on the heart. The bitter taste of Dandelion stimulates digestive juices and bile secretions. It also detoxifies the liver and kidneys. Through detoxifying the body, Dandelion can help improve skin. The Latin name is Taraxacum officinale.

To quote the great herbalist Matthew Wood:

“Used to cool excess heat and thin and disperse surplus fluids.”

“The leaf has an earthen taste, so it increases diuresis. It is indicated in tiresome, achy, feverish, chronic infections with relief from urination. Because the leaves contain sodium and potassium they act on both sides of the kidney mechanism: excreting fluids and retaining specific contents. Hence, dandelion leaf is one of the few diuretics that retains potassium and builds up the retentive side of the kidneys.”

“As a diuretic, dandelion leaf can cause weight loss due to water removal.”
