Organic Burdock Root

Organic Burdock Root from Albania

Organic burdock root is carefully sourced from Albania and prepared from Arctium lappa, a traditional botanical with a long history of use in Western herbalism, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and other herbal traditions. Naturally caffeine free, the root produces an earthy, mildly sweet infusion and can be prepared as a tea or decoction.

Burdock is a biennial plant known for its long taproot and distinctive burrs. The root naturally contains inulin, a type of prebiotic dietary fibre, along with naturally occurring plant compounds including phenolic acids and flavonoids.

Traditionally, burdock root has been used to support healthy digestion and elimination and has a long history of use in herbal preparations associated with skin health. It has also traditionally been regarded as an alterative herb and used in preparations intended to support the body's natural elimination processes.

Burdock also has a long history of use in Traditional Chinese Medicine. In Chinese herbal tradition, burdock is associated with the Lung and Stomach meridians and has traditionally been used for its cooling properties.

Burdock root has an earthy, subtly sweet flavour with mild woody notes. It can be enjoyed on its own or combined with other roots and herbs to create rich, complex herbal infusions.
