Dandelion
Overview
Eat your weeds!
Yes, this ubiquitous yard weed is good for you.
But we didn’t say it was tasty…you might prefer it in capsules!
And our dandelion is tested for purity & safety.
The entire Dandelion plant is edible—the flowers, the leaves and the roots.
Herbalists consider this plant one of the most nutrient-rich in the plant kingdom, as it's a source of many important vitamins and minerals.
One man’s weed is another man’s supplement!
This plant’s jagged-edged leaf provided the impetus for its name. The French dent de lion or lion’s tooth became dandelion.
Dandelions grow all over Europe, Asia and North America. While we think of Dandelion as a lawn blemish, the world has seen it in a different light.
Dandelion has been part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for thousands of years.
In TCM, dandelion, or pu gong ying, nourishes and supports the kidneys (Shen), liver (Gan) and gallbladder (Dan), especially when the blood is “hot.”
Benefits
- Provides urinary system support.
- Supports digestion & liver function
- Supports detox & women's health

How It Works
Dandelion root has long been associated with supporting digestion, liver function, and women's health.
Traditionally used as a liver tonic, dandelion contains polysaccharides that may support liver function and help detoxify the liver.
Animal studies show that antioxidants found in dandelion root, including caffeic acid and luteolin, may help protect the liver and support healthy cholesterol levels.
Dandelion is reported to have tonic effects on the gallbladder and has been used for maintenance of the pancreas.
Plus, dandelion has been studied for its potential support of both the immune and urinary systems.
Dandelion has been used traditionally to encourage urine output as an aid to flushing out the urinary tract.
Ingredients
Dandelion root.
Quality
Dandelions can grow all over…and they do. But our dandelion root comes from China where it’s grown and cultivated by local farmers who we have been doing business with for more than a decade. In addition to creating supply chain stability, these contracts provide jobs and support families.
Our supply partner has been audited by us and by NSF, a global leader in ensuring manufacturing plant excellence. Their facility is ISO9001 certified.
And, our dandelion is Kosher- and Halal-certified as well.
Recommended Use
Take 2 capsules with a meal twice daily.
