That plant that everybody loves to hate because of its' burs, is an excellent blood purifier. It helps to remove impurities from the bloodstream, which in this toxic world, we all could use more of! Also known to act as a diuretic.
Can lower blood sugar (though it doesn't affect mine - YMMV) so diabetics should proceed with caution.

Pros:
Helps remove toxins, effective diuretic, inexpensive.
Cons:
Diabetics proceed with care as burdock can lower blood sugar.
If you have allergies/reactions to daises, chrysanthemums, or ragweed, proceed with caution. They are related and you might experience a similar reaction to the burdock.
Should not be combined with other diuretics as dehydration can result. |
