Applications
Dandelion leaf is a notable diuretic. Indicated for ankle swelling, high blood pressure and water retention, it can be used to relieve the system of excess fluid whilst replenishing the valuable potassium levels often depleted by other diuretics. Rich in nutrient minerals as well as vitamins A, B and C, dandelion leaf has a beneficial effect on impaired or weak digestions. It works to foster a renewed appetite, may help toreduce cholesterol levels and to optimise blood sugar levels. . In common with the dandelion root tincture, this is an excellent cleansing tonic for the liver, pancreas and gall bladder and will help to regulate, balance and flush harmful toxins.

About the Product
At home in all parts of the northern temperate zone, in pastures, meadows and on waste ground. The first mention of the dandelion as a medicine is in the works of Arab physicians of the tenth and eleventh centuries. In the UK it is thought there are allusions to its use in the Welsh medicines of the thirteenth century but it was the sixteenth century when it became widely used across Europe. Its reputation as a medicine grew as it became a popular salad herb and coffee substitute.
