Nettle

Nettle tea is a delicious and beneficial beverage that can treat urinary problems, soothe allergies and hives, treat gout, lower blood pressure, improve skin, hair, and bone health. The tea is a detox drink that helps treat hay fever, boost the immune system, protect the heart, optimize digestion, and relieve inflammation, among others.

Nettle tea can be quite a strong beverage, and has a rapid effect on the body, primarily due to the flavonoids, carotenoids, vitamins, and minerals found in the plant. Stinging nettle is rich in vitamins A, B, C, D, and K. As compared to leafy green vegetables, it is richer in calcium and magnesium. The leaves are protein-dense equivalent to spinach, and the same leaves can be dried and steeped into a tea. It also contains iodine, iron, silicon, and potassium. The antioxidants alone are enough to make it a healthy food, but the specific effects of this plant that have been discovered over the years make it even more attractive to natural healers and practitioners.
