Introduction:
Dandelion is a weedy perennial herb of the genus Taraxacum of the family Asteraceae. Native to Eurasia, it is widespreaded throughout much of the temperate regions around the globe. The most familiar species is T. Officinale. The Chinese use mainly T. Mongolium Hand. Mazz. As the herb, but other plants of the same genus are also used.
1. Correcting Liver Function:
Dandelion extract is used in inflammation and congestion of liver. As one of the most effective detoxifying herbs, it acts by filtering toxins and wastes from the bloodstream, the gallbladder, the liver and the kidneys. It stimulates bile production, and helps the body get rid of excess water produced by the diseased liver. The Australian Journal Medical Herbalism Vol 3 (4), 1991, refers to two studies, one by Vivarelli in 1938 and the other in Britain, which demonstrate the liver healing properties of dandelion. They found that dandelion successfully treats hepatitis, liver swelling, jaundice and indigestion in those with inadequate bile secretion. 5 It is also used in the early stages of liver cirrhosis such as alcoholic cirrhosis.
2. Cholagogue
Extract of dandelion, flavonoids can double the flow of bile. This is critical in the process of toxin elimination, because bile flow is a natural secretion essential to transporting toxins from the liver to the intestines, where they are shuttled out of the body. An English study found that in addition to increasing biliary flow, dandelion extract can restore biliary function. Its cholagogue effect is useful for liver and gall bladder inflammation, eliminate gallstones and congestion, as well as jaundiced states.
3. Diuretic
Extract of dandelion leaves is a powerful diuretic. Unlike many conventional diuretics, dandelion leaves do not leach potassium from the body. In fact, the leaves are so rich in this mineral that they function as a potassium supplement. This diuretic action is responsible for the dandelion's use as a treatment for high blood pressure.
