“B” is for Burdock
Herbalists revere Burdock as nature's best blood purifier. It helps to rid the body of harmful toxins and clear congestion from the circulatory, lymphatic, respiratory, and urinary systems. It is said to soothe the aches and pains of arthritis, alleviate excess water weight, and help to keep the skin clear and healthy. As a matter-of-fact, Burdock is believed to help keep the entire body clear and healthy.
Burdock is also thought to help heal a damaged liver and protect it from further damage. It’s known to promote the flow and release of bile, which not only helps to cleanse the liver, but also aids the digestive process. The mucilage, "bitter" and inulin contents in Burdock also help to support good digestion, as well as soothe the digestive tract and help many stomach conditions.
