Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) is a common flowering plant found abundantly in all temperate zones of the Northern Hemisphere. Considered by some to be a nuisance weed with no redeeming properties, Dandelion Root is a source of many naturally occurring compounds including carotenoids, fatty acids, flavonoids and phytosterols.

Dandelion is a sun-loving meadow herb that many of us remember from childhood romps through country fields. It is a free-growing perennial that blooms wherever it can find a sunny bit of earth, and is found in fields and lawns throughout the world. As a tea, Dandelion is warm and soothing, and may bring back a little bit of the child in you!
