Product Details

Dandelion, Taraxacum officinale, is a member of the Aster family and can be found through out the world. It is very nutritious, containing many vitamins and minerals.

The whole plant is edible. The young leaves are good for transitioning from winter food to spring food and are great in salads. The flowers are used for making wine and dandelion fritters. The roots can be used just like any other root vegetable, in stews, soups, etc.

Dandelion supports the liver by ridding it of toxins. It also tones and removes stagnation.
Dandelion is also good for:
  • poor digestion
  • acid reflex
  • jaundice
  • constipation
  • psoriasis of the liver
  • kidney issues
I foraged this plant in central Minnesota.

NOTE: 1 oz amber bottle and a dropper

I use the folk method for making all my tinctures, which uses no measurements except sizing things up with your eyes. So I put the plant material in a jar and then fill with alcohol.

Dosages -
Tinctures are meant to be used as medicine in small amounts. Add 10-20 drops to your tea, juice, water or directly into your mouth when needed.
Dosages for children are not provided in most herbals. To determine the correct dose you need to consider the size of the child, the ailment, the power of the herb you intend to use, and the adult dosage.
Young's Rule for determining dosage uses the child's age divided by twelve plus the age. The dosage for a 4 year old:
4/12+4 = 4/16 = 1/4 of the adult dose.
