Dandelion tea

Confusing weighing yourself everyday. Weight up, body fat down. That’s why it’s important not to starve yourself or fret too much if the figures don’t make sense. We want good weight loss not muscle loss. I feel my metabolism is picking up already this year.

I’ve been drinking a lot of tanpopocha which is Japanese for dandelion tea.
Supposed to be good for the liver as I mentioned yesterday.
Studies on both rats and humans that involved injecting them with dandelion have resulted in them losing up to 30% of their body weight.

The medicinal and nutritional uses for the dandelion are the main reasons why there are so many dandelions today. Dandelions have been purposely cultivated and widely used throughout history. The Celts introduced it to the Roman legions when Caesar invaded the north. The Anglo-Saxons and the Normans used it to prevent scurvy (vitamin C deficiency) and monastery gardens used it for both food and medicine in the Middle Ages. The Puritans used it only as a vegetable. As different crops became more popular, dandelions were no longer considered a staple, primarily because of the bitter taste.

Dandelion leaf is a natural diuretic that increases urine production by promoting the excretion of salts and water from the kidney.

It may be used for a wide range of conditions requiring mild diuretic treatment, such as poor digestion, liver disorders, and high blood pressure. One advantage of dandelion is that dandelion is a source of potassium, a nutrient often lost through the use of other natural and synthetic diuretics.

Dandelion tea can be used as an herbal detox to help cleanse your liver and kidneys. It can be taken on its own, or in combination with other herbs.
