Cultivate Your Wellness
The wonderful weed has a strong herbal remedy purpose, and can help with digestion and other bodily functions. Dandelion greens are full of calcium, Vitamin C, Vitamin A, Vitamin K, iron, magnesium, potassium and other minerals.
Dandelion greens also have been used as a diuretic, an agent that promotes the loss of water from the body through urination.
Dandelion roots contain inulin and levulin, starchlike substances that may help balance blood sugar, as well as a bitter substance(taraxcin) that stimulates digestion. The very presence of a bitter taste in the mouth promotes the flow of bile from the liver and gallbladder, as well as hydrochloric acid from the stomach.
Dandelion roots make wonderful colon cleansing and detoxifying medications because any time digestion is improved, the absorption of nutrients and the removal of wates from the body improve as well.
Many people could use a little extra support for the liver.
Rough dry skin and acne, constipation, gas and bloating, frequent headaches, and premenstrual syndrome are all potential symptoms of an overburdened liver.
Important Uses:
Removes poisons from the body
Benefits liver function
