Historical Facts: Dandelion has over 500 local names, with the most well-known being dandelion, frogweed, and wild lettuce. The English name "dandelion" and the French "dent-de-lion" come from the leaves that resemble lion’s teeth. The botanical name derives from the Arabic "tarakshaqum," meaning "the bitter herb." Arab physicians have documented its therapeutic properties since the 11th century.
Scientifically Documented Applications: The German Commission E and ESCOP support the use of dandelion for gastrointestinal discomfort, restoring the function of the intestines, liver, and bile, and for enhancing diuresis.
The bitter substances contained in dandelion enhance secretion in the gastrointestinal tract. Animal studies have shown an increase in urine output.
