General Information:
Radix taraxaci is an herbaceous perennial plant consists of a rosette of basal leaves and occasional flowering stalks. The name Taraxacum established around 1000 AD. More than 500 common names of Dandelions are there, and they have been recorded too. Dandelions are believed to be grown for about 30 million years ago in Eurasia. According to the historical records, these plants have been used by humans for food and as an herb.
Dandelion leaves are longer than 5–15 cm, simple, lobed, and form a basal rosette above the central taproot. The flower heads are yellow or orange colored. The heads are borne singly on a hollow stem that is usually leafless and rises 1–5 cm or more above the leaves. Stems and leaves exude white, milky latex when broken. A rosette may produce several flowering stems at a time. The flower heads are 1–5 cm in diameter and consist entirely of ray florets. Dandelion leaves are among our most nutrient-dense greens. The tender spring leaves are full of Nutrients. It is a time-honored tradition in many countries in Europe to pick those spring greens and eat them, not only for their valuable nutrition but also for their ability to stimulate healthy digestion. Dandelions are used as both food and medicine and can be eaten in fairly high amounts.
It is said that that the dandelion was intentionally brought to North America by European settlers who could not bear the thought of leaving this important food and medicine behind. In fact, dandelions are still admired in many European countries. The flowers are routinely made into jams and wine

Hot water is needed to draw out the antioxidants, enzymes, vitamins, flavonoids, and volatile oils from the botanicals. Strain and squeeze out as much as liquid as possible and enjoy!
