Burdock Root Organic Loose Tea from Clef des Champs is root cut and ready to steep for 30mins for maximum flavour and effect. Burdock is particularly known in the herbal medicine community for its ability to remove toxins from the body by cleaning the blood. Because of this, Burdock is used for skin conditions, like acne, and gout that are considered to result from toxin accumulation. Burdock can also be used to cleanse toxins from the intestinal tract. It is a bitter herb that causes the release of digestive juices and bile, thus helping with intestinal cleansing. Because of its bitter flavour, Burdock has the ability to increase appetite and digestion. It does this by stimulating the flow of digestive juices such as: stomach acid, digestive enzymes from the pancreas and bile from the liver.
