Whole Formulas Burdock Extract, 1 fl oz

Burdock has dark green leaves and prickly heads, or “burrs,” and belongs to the genus “Arctium” from the Greek word “arktos” meaning “bear.” It contains inulin, used to improve digestion, and has a higher antioxidant count than many fruits and vegetables. In Asia, the taproot of burdock is cultivated and consumed as a root vegetable.

Burdock may have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, and is used by many as a blood purifier, detoxifier and diuretic. During the Industrial Revolution, it was used to combat the negative health effects of increased pollution. Burdock is also used to promote skin health.

The Benefits of Herbal Extracts:

Potency

The herbs used in Whole Formulas extracts are picked at the peak of their growth cycle to ensure maximum potency, then processed immediately upon receipt to capture their inherent vitality. Extracts are often the preferred choice of herbalists and naturopaths for this reason.

Bioavailability

Due to common digestion issues, many people have trouble fully breaking down pills and tablets. With extracts, the plant material has already been processed during formulation. All that remains is the full-spectrum of potent active nutrients ready for absorption.

Convenience

Simply place the recommended dose in water or juice and drink. The built-in dropper cap makes it easy to control dosage.

1 fl oz in amber glass bottle with dropper top.
