Detox Your Body With A Natural Herbal Remedy

Detox Your Body With A Natural Herbal Remedy

by Ron George

Some people know it as a mere weed but many others depend on the herb for healing. You are probably aware of the existence of this week, which with its soft and mild herbal action can detox your body and be equally effective in the management of various healthy-related problems. It is dandelion. Dandelion has so many vitamins and minerals that you could use it to nourish your body the same way you use a multi-vitamin/mineral supplement.

It contains several essential vitamins and nutrients like vitamins A, C and K, Choline, B-complex, iron, silicon, magnesium, manganese, potassium, sodium, phosphorus and copper. It is normal for health aficionados to opt for the leaves to make a healthy salad.

Dandelion helps in detox of the liver and restores hormonal imbalance. This is simply because of the hormone metabolizing action by the liver. A healthy liver can help you to handle all symptoms of menopause, menstrual cycle irregularity as well as PMS.

Dandelion is a diuretic so it leads to weight loss. Its mode of action does not have anything to do with the intrinsic reason for weight gain, but it can help in effective weight loss without exhausting the critical potassium level of the body.

So it turns out that dandelion could realistically deal with the underlying issue of weight gain if it is related to poor digestion. It helps in bowel movement with the ability of enhancing bile production from the gall bladder. If you are thinking of using it for this, take it for a few months to perk up your gall bladder and liver but the intake ought to be brought down. This weed energizes some natural actions and revitalizes many secretions of the digestive system like in indigestion. It retrains your digestive organs without you having to go through much effort. Some people have trouble digesting fat due to insufficient bile but dandelion will come to the rescue again.

Dandelion to detox is not advisable in case you are allergic to the weed or have inflammation of the gall bladder, intestinal blockage or obstruction in the bile duct. 250 to 500 mg thrice a day with meals is the suggested dose for adults. Take the advice of a doctor before you start with a new supplement. Nature has many ways to keep us healthy.
