Dandelion Leaf
The leaves of dandelion are mineral-rich. Dandelion is used to help the kidneys cleanse, and to regulate fluid balance. This cleansing action is used in the treatment of skin conditions such as acne, rosacea and eczema.
Dandelion Root
Preliminary research suggests that dandelion may help improve liver and gallbladder function. Increased liver function flushes toxins and excess water. Many teatoxes include dandelion because of its detoxing properties. Dr. Nesheiwat says it may actually aid in burning more fat. “It helps burn calories by increasing the process of breaking down the fat in the liver,” she says. Roots take longer to infuse than the leaves, so steeping this tea for slightly longer may be a good idea.
Nettle Leaf
Nettle Leaf is a great detoxifier. The consumption of nettle leaf has been found to reduce inflammation in the body and support the detoxification processes of the liver & kidneys. Nettle leaf is a great plant source of nutrients including chlorophyll, potassium, iron and magnesium. Nettle is high in nutrients including vitamins A, B, C and K. Nettle is traditionally used to strengthen the whole body by reducing inflammation, supporting liver detoxification, increasing circulation and improving immunity.
