Organic Dandelion - Fresh root tincture | 50 ml

Dandelion root is used for its cholagogue, hepatic and depurative properties. It contains inulin, taraxacin (a bitter compound), minerals (potassium, iron, calcium, manganese), trace elements, sugars, resins and waxes. Acting mainly on the digestive and urinary tracts, it improves general health by affecting the blood, skin and joints. Its high potassium content balances its diuretic action. Dandelion works mainly on the underlying terrain, helping to eliminate toxins, uric acid and cholesterol. It reduces inflammation and deposits, helping joints regain their mobility. It also tones the pancreas, adrenal glands and liver, regulating blood sugar levels. It is not a direct hypoglycemic agent, but rather a tonic and regulator.
