Freeze-Dried Herb, wildcrafted root
425 mg. per cap, 50 vcaps $11.49
Actions: Alterative, depurative, laxative, purgative, cholagogue, astringent.
Common Use: The blood cleansing properties of this root make it an outstanding remedy in all diseases associated with impurities in the blood. It is therefore very valuable in skin problems, eczema, pimples, boils, rheumatic conditions and lymph gland enlargement. Its richness in organic iron also improves and enriches the quality of the blood. The roots also contain anthraquinone glycosides, similar to those found in buckthorn bark and cascara sagrada bark. It is these compounds that account for the laxative effect that is also found in yellow dock. Yellow dock has a beneficial effect on liver function, increasing its ability to strain and purify the blood. In search for an explanation for yellow dock’s amazing blood purifying effects, research has thus far turned up only a high thiamine content as a possibility. Use in moderation during pregnancy, with the supervision of a health practitioner.
