Organic Dandelion Leaf Tincture 2 fluid oz

Dandelion Leaf Tincture (Taraxacum officinale)

A humble green with wild resilience, Dandelion Leaf is nature’s spring tonic—bright, bitter, and born to cleanse.

Often overlooked and misunderstood, Dandelion Leaf is the unsung hero of the hedgerow—offering her gifts freely to those wise enough to gather them. In folk tradition, dandelion was seen as a cleanser of the body and spirit, appearing in early spring to flush the stagnation of winter and awaken the organs of elimination. While the golden flower lifts the mood and the root steadies the liver, it is the leaf that most deeply tends the waters within.

Traditionally, Dandelion Leaf has been used to support kidney function, encourage healthy urination, and reduce puffiness and water retention. Its vibrant bitterness also aids digestion and supports liver health, making it a classic herbal ally in seasonal cleansing and daily nourishment.

In modern herbalism, Dandelion Leaf is valued for:

• Supporting kidney and urinary tract health

• Acting as a gentle, nourishing diuretic

• Reducing fluid retention and bloating

• Providing essential trace minerals like potassium and calcium
