A premium formula of Dandelion root, which is naturally aged and cold-pressed to protect the natural elements of the plant. Individuals need to research herb products and natural therapies carefully and seek medical advice from a licensed physician before use.

Dandelion is a hardy herbal plant that is grown in most climate zones all over the world and used by many cultures for a food and to promote health.  Often recognized for its green flat leaves and bright yellow flower it is grown commercially worldwide and organically grown within the United States. However, most Americans recognize dandelion as a yard weed.

Dandelion is known for its fleshy-colored, light brown roots often harvested in the fall after the flower has lost its bloom. This is when the nutrition returns to the root system and contains a hardy nutrition profile. This has made this plant so attractive to civilizations for thousands of years and used in traditional medicine worldwide. The American settlers often would include Dandelion root in their salads and spring tonics to nutritionally refresh the body and support the detoxification system. Often dandelion root is used to support the digestive function. The signature taste of dandelion greens is slightly bitter, but the root has a very mild and woodsy taste often used in teas and tinctures (extracts). 

Our Dandelion root tincture is made with wild crafted dried roots that are carefully powdered to avoid heat. We use only organic alcohol and we naturally age for 30-days and then cold-press. Herbs are sensitive to heat. You can add Dandelion tincture to be used with other tinctures such as Ginseng, Milk Thistle and Willow bark. Dandelion root tincture can be added to cold or room temperature beverages but never add it to a hot beverage or soup.
