Burdock root has been used in traditional Chinese and Indian Ayurvedic medicine to treat fever and congestion caused by flu, pneumonia, and colds. Burdock is also used to eliminate toxins from the body.

It's not just the root but the Burdock seeds, "niupangzi" as they are known in China, that are also used in traditional Chinese medicine.

Dishes: In Japan, Kinpira Gobo, is a staple side dish of pan fried burdock root and carrots with caramelized sweet soy sauce.

In the United Kingdom, a company called Fentimans latched on to the wonderful goodness of Burdock and created a drink called "Fentimans Dandelion & Burdock" (yummy stuff indeed!).

Organic Burdock Root is a powerhouse of nourishment packed with iron, inulin, lactone, chlorogenic acid, polyacetylenes (an effective antibacterial and antifungal ingredient), resin, tannin, and taraxosterol. Calcium, potassium, amino acids, polyphenols (a natural antiseptic, anti-inflammatory & anti-oxidant derived from plants), mucilage, arcigen, essential oil, and flavonoids.

Phytosterol content: Burdock Root is also rich in phytosterols and essential fatty acids (including rare long chain EFAs) required to maintain a healthy scalp and promote the growth of naturally curly, wavy, Afro textured hair. Organic Burdock root's active ingredient, arctiin, can deter chronic tissue inflammation whilst stimulating the synthesis of connective tissues like collagen. Thus reducing the ageing process caused by chronic inflammation. This leads to loss of elasticity and resilience in facial skin giving way to the "wrinkled appearance".
