The root contains most of the plants active ingredients, anthraquinones, which is why Organic Connections harvests the root of the plant using practices that keep the soil in tact. They then follow a process called cut and sift to turn the root into small, residue free pieces that you can then use in your herbal formulas or to make an herbal tea that is strong and bitter.

Yellow Dock & Medicinal Benefits
Yellow Dock (Rumex crispus) belongs to the large Polygonaceae family and is one of about 200 species. This perennial plant is native to Europe, though it has since become naturalized in various temperate regions around the world. Its distinctive lance-shaped leaves, often marked with a lemon-yellow hue, make it easy to spot in meadows, fields, and along roadsides. Yellow Dock is a botanical kin to the more familiar sorrel and rhubarb and gets its Latin name "Rumex" from the Greek word–"dart" or "spear" about the shape of the plant’s leaves.
Research on this herb shows it contains about 268 substances, including anthraquinones, flavonoids, naphthalenes, stilbenes, diterpene alkaloids, terpenes, lignans, and tannins. The combination of these compounds imparts Yellow Dock with its distinct therapeutic properties, including antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, antioxidant, cardioprotective, and antiaging effects.
The historical use of this herb is woven into the fabric of traditional herbal medicine. Native American tribes employed it for its versatile properties, using the roots to address a wide range of ailments. In European herbal traditions, it found favour as a blood purifier and tonic, earning a place in herbal apothecaries for its ability to rid the body of toxins. Today, Yellow Dock is used in several applications, such as supporting digestive, immune, and skin health and treating anemia. Yellow Dock is also highly hepatoprotective and can help stimulate the release of digestive juices and bile, which helps improve the absorption of nutrients and the liver's detoxifying abilities.

Who Should Consider Yellow Dock?

As a bitter herb, it is ideal for supporting digestive health, aiding those with constipation, sluggish bowel movements, and gas and bloating. Individuals looking to naturally boost their iron levels might also find Yellow Dock beneficial, as it contains compounds that support iron absorption and utilization. Last but not least, anyone interested in protecting their liver and supporting general hepatic function may want to try it.
Yellow Dock Supplement Varieties
You can purchase this herb in its raw state – the fresh leaves or roots that lend themselves well to culinary applications. The young leaves, in fact, can be added to salads, soups, and all sorts of savoury dishes, providing a tangy flavour while stimulating digestion.
If you're seeking more therapeutic doses, it's also available in tea (loose leaf or teabags) and supplement forms, including capsules, alcohol extracts, and tinctures.
Considerations & Cautions
While generally well tolerated, some individuals may experience mild gastrointestinal discomforts, such as nausea or diarrhea, when using Yellow Dock. Additionally, excessive or prolonged use of the herb may lead to electrolyte imbalances. People with a history of kidney stones should exercise caution, as Yellow Dock contains oxalates that could exacerbate this condition.
Individuals with a known allergy to plants in the Polygonaceae family should avoid Yellow Dock.
