Dandelions

Dandelions have been making news lately,
and it's all good!

It turns out that these hated weeds aren't weeds at all, but one of the world's most nutritious and health-promoting vegetables. They are an excellent blood purifier and detoxifier of the liver, help with weight loss, and much more. A prominent herbalist, Gregory Tilford has said, "Dandelion is one of the most complete plant foods on earth. All the vital nutrients are conveniently contained in a single source, in quantities that the body can easily process and fully absorb." In fact, the Latin name for dandelions is Taraxacum officinale, which translates to "official remedy for disorders".

Maybe killing those dandelions in your yard all these years wasn't such a great idea after all!
