The Dandelion is well known for its flower, its roundel of seeds and its trademark smell.  Far from discarding it as an invasive weed, our gardeners carefully nurture their annual crop because they know, as Alfred Vogel did, the benefits of using the whole plant including the roots of this undervalued plant to help maintain the body’s health.

MORE ON DANDELION  - by Alison Cullen author of Herbs for Healthy Living

Also known as:
Taraxacum.           

Uses:
Fluid retention, liver tonic.

Description:
The Dandelion plant is often seen as a weed. However, it has distinct medicinal properties and its action on the liver is particularly prized by herbalists.

How it works:
Dandelion is an excellent cleansing agent, being one of the most effective detoxifying herbs. It possesses a wide range of active constituents and is also rich in minerals and nutrients. The root of the plant stimulates liver function.

This has a primary use in improving digestion as a result of an increase in digestive juices. In addition, Dandelion leaves have diuretic and mild laxative properties.

Additional advice:
Those with liver complaints, gallstones or an obstructed bile duct should first consult a Doctor. Do not take alongside diuretics.
