Product Overview
Hilde Hemmes Herbals Stinging Nettle 2000mg 60 Capsules
Stinging nettle leaf has been popular since ancient times and was used by the Greek physicians Dioscorides (first century) and Galen (ca. 130-200 C.E.).
Stinging nettle is unique because all plant parts can be used medicinally, however the stinging nettle root cannot be used to obtain the same results as the nettle leaf.
Hilde Hemmes' stinging nettle capsules contain concentrated leaf extract for the relief of inflammation of rheumatism.
Medicinal Use
- Stinging nettle has traditionally been used in western herbal medicine for centuries as a diuretic and to help maintain normal urinary tract function.
- Studies confirm its anti-inflammatory action which explains its clinical benefits for the temporary relief of inflammation and pain of rheumatism.
