Dandelion - Taraxacum officinale Weber ex Wigg. - Family: Asteraceae. - Other Names: Pissenlit, dent de lion (French); Gemeiner Löwenzahn (German); taraxaco (Italian); diente de leon (Spanish). - Description: Dandelion is a leafy perennial herb with a fleshy taproot and a rosette of markedly toothed leaves. Solitary yellow flower heads are borne on hollow, unbranched stalks. The small brown fruits (achenes) each has a hairy "parachute" for wind dispersal. All parts of the plant exude a bitter, milky juice when cut or broken. The common dandelion is actually a complicated mixture of microspecies and races that are difficult to identify (the name T. officinale is loosely applied to the species complex as a whole). Dandelion is a corruption of dent de lion (lion's tooth) in reference to the sharp teeth on the leaves. - Origin: All parts of the northern hemisphere (now a cosmopolitan weeds); widely cultivated for salad - Chinese researchers were able to show that dandelion restores three different types of immune functions!; A harmful natural substance has been shown to be inhibited by dandelion! - Take 1 capsule, 3 times daily, with meals. - TerraVita is an exclusive line of premium-quality, natural source products that use only the finest, purest and most potent ingredients found around the world.
