Dandelion is a popular herb and easily accessed. It is a member of the Sunflower family and its name

comes from the French “dents de lion”, meaning “teeth of the lion” because of the coarsely serrated leaves.

The entire plant is edible and some enjoy it in tea form, usually the roasted root. This particular species is found and classed as a weed worldwide but is still considered one of the better herbs for general nutrients.

It contains potassium and usually, when taking diuretics, potassium is leached out along with the excess fluids, as there is no potassium in diuretics to replace the potassium. So that is a bonus.

Very high in nutrition it nutritionally assists the urinary system thereby eliminating toxins and unwanted excess fluid in the tissues, providing the build up of fluids in the tissues are due to the urinary and hepatic systems not doing their work well enough.

(Another reason for fluid build up is circulatory and lymphatic sluggishness, so one would use different herbs in that case).

Dandelion also provides nutrition for the liver and gallbladder, thus increasing production of bile and clearing toxic build up.

It is also present in Nature Sunshine combination herb  "LIV-A" or "liver Cleanse" as it is sometimes known. (See combination list)

Common names: Lion's tooth, dandelion, blow ball.
