Burdock Root 50gm Arctium Lappa 50gm

Burdock root, also known as Arctium lappa, is a vegetable native to Northern Asia and Europe, but it now grows in the United States as well 1. It has been used for centuries in holistic medicine to treat a variety of different conditions. Burdock root is rich in antioxidants and may be used as a natural remedy for a variety of conditions. It’s also available as a tea, root, powder, or extract and can be incorporated into many recipes 1. Some of the potential health benefits of burdock root include:

  • It’s a powerhouse of antioxidants, which protect cells in the body from damage due to free radicals. They can help treat and prevent a number of different health conditions. Antioxidants can also help to reduce inflammation 1.
  • It removes toxins from the blood. Recent evidence has found that burdock root contains active ingredients in its root system that can remove toxins from the bloodstream. Research also found that burdock root effectively detoxified blood and promoted increased circulation in the surface of the skin 1.
  • It may inhibit some types of cancer. Research has found that burdock had “potent inhibitory effects” on cancer growth caused by cancers like pancreatic carcinoma. Another study found burdock root significantly interfered with cancer cell growth 1.
  • It may be an aphrodisiac. In a nonhuman study, it was found that the extract of burdock root had an aphrodisiac effect. The extract enhanced sexual function and increased the amount of sexual behavior in the male rats. Research is needed on humans, but anecdotal evidence supports this claim 1.
  • It can help treat skin issues. Burdock root has also long been used to treat skin conditions like acne and eczema. The root’s anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties can help resolve skin issues when applied topically to the skin 1.

Burdock root is generally considered safe to consume, but it may cause some side effects in some people. It’s always best to consult with a healthcare professional before using burdock root as a supplement or remedy 1.
