DANDELION
The leaves and the root of the dandelion plant have different medicinal properties; the leaves are a diuretic that can help clean the urinary tract, while the roots are a digestive bitter.

Urinary Tract Cleanser
The leaves act as a potassium-sparing diuretic, which functions equally to common recommendation diuretics in studies. Thus dandelion leaf can be used to treat water retention such as retention that is due to PMS. This action also allows dandelion leaf to flush fluid through the kidneys making it a good herb for cleansing the urinary tract.

Dandelion is in the same plant family as ragweed therefore individuals with ragweed allergies should not use dandelion. Also, prolonged use of dandelion may lead to sensitization to ragweed. Dandelion’s diuretic properties may upset the fluid balance of individuals taking diuretic medication, lithium or digoxin. Dandelion stimulates intestinal and gallbladder contractions and the release of digestive juices therefore it is contraindicated for use by people with gallbladder conditions, intestinal obstruction, stomach inflammation and irritable bowel syndrome.
