Common Dock - Rumex obtusiflius or Rumex crispus - (Broad-leaved Dock, Butter Dock, Yellow Dock, Curled Dock) - Medicinal Usage - Both yellow and broad-leaved dock were used for the same health purposes, notably to help support skin complaints, liver disorders and respiratory problems. The roots were used as a laxative, and for anaemia. Rubbing the fresh leaves on nettle stings was supposed to lessen the hurt. - Culinary Usage - The young leaves of dock, although somewhat bitter, were cooked as a vegetable. Culpeper said that "all docks being boiled with meat, make it boil the sooner", adding that they were "as wholesome a pot herb as any growing in a garden." - Miscellaneous - The plant was listed by Aelfric. In country districts, the leaves were used to wrap butter, hence the name 'butter-dock'. The roots of broad-leaved dock yield a greenish-yellow dye. - Useful in supporting psoriasis, jaundice and anaemia - Stir 1/4 of a teaspoon into a glass of water and consume 3 times daily, with meals. - The TerraVita Premium Collection uses only the finest, purest and most potent plant extracts from around the world. - The TerraVita Premium Collection is hallmarked by the highest possible standards of purity, potency, stability and freshness.
