Learn about benefits of Dandelion Root.

Dandelion is used primarily to remove accumulated toxic substances from the body. It is a blood purifier, useful in treating obstructions of the gallbladder, liver and pancreas.

The taproot is white on the inside and dark brown on the outside and grows up to 6 inches long.
The plant first appeared in the 10th century journals of Arabian physicians. By the 16th century, the British considered Dandelion a valuable herbal plant and it has held a distinguished place among European herbalists for centuries.

Dandelion's beneficial effects on liver and biliary tract function have been proven in pharmacological studies and have a long history of use in traditional European herbal medicine.

Dandelion enhances the entire digestive system. For a cleansing routine you can drink three cups od dandelion root tea daily for six to eight weeks.

Dandelion is also considered an interesting aid in the treatment of problems related to body weight as the leaves are diuretic and the root improves fat metabolism.

The Dandelion Tea is a great alternative to coffee, for many reasons. No caffeine, it stimulates your liver, it really tastes a lot like coffee as well.

Personally, I began losing water weight the first day I drank this tea. I brewed a strong pot of tea everyday (2 tablespoons of tea, in 24 ounces of hot water, steeped for 10 minutes) and drastically reduced the amount of protein in my diet. My overworked kidneys are now happily plowing through the backlog.
