What is Dandelion Leaf? Many people think of the dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) as an annoying weed, but it is full of vitamins A, B, C, and D, as well as minerals like iron, potassium, and zinc.
Dandelion leaves can be added to salads, sandwiches, and teas to make them taste better. Some coffee substitutes are made from the roots, and wines are made from the flowers.
In the past, liver problems were treated with the roots and leaves of dandelion. Native Americans also boiled dandelion in water and took it to treat kidney disease, swelling, skin problems, heartburn, and upset stomachs. In traditional Chinese medicine, dandelion has been used to treat stomach problems, appendicitis, and breast problems like inflammation or not enough milk flow.
