Dandelion Root – Body Cleaner

 Dandelion root is a valuable source of organic sodium (not the salt shaker kind of sodium), for relief of ulcers, stomach disorders, and joint and muscle stiffness. Dandelion Root may be used to drive out “bad sodium” deposits (from excess consumption of regular sodium salt) from the body and gently re-establish the proper active and necessary sodium balance, for the stomach, joints and in the blood stream. This cleansing yellow flowered plant while gentle is a most effective blood and liver cleaner as well as blood nutrient. Dandelion is a valuable deposit for your blood bank account. Dandelion, contrary to certain interests, is public friend #1, and if it is growing in your lawn, you probably need it.

What is dandelion root good for? This plant is low in calories, yet high in fiber as well as antioxidants, vitamin K, vitamin A and vitamin C. Research even suggests it can help reduce cancer growth, lower cholesterol levels and support liver function.

In addition to being rich in many vitamins and minerals that promote a strong immune system, dandelion is also readily available, easy to add to your diet and bursting with a signature, peppery flavor.

Recommended Dosage: 10 to 40 drops three times per day in fluid or under the tongue.

Directions on label: For adults, mix 2 ml of extract in 2 oz (60 ml) of water one time daily preferably with a meal.
