Dandelion Spring!



Almost that time a year again, when our Dandelion's come back... so I feel the need to post a few things about them

First a WARNING: DO NOT use Dandelions that have been sprayed with pesticide, weed killer, or grass killer!!!  Leave one area free of that stuff so you can enjoy the benefits of them:

Extremely Healthy
Natural Diuretic
Lowers Blood Pressure
Contains Insulin and Levulin
Reduces Blood Sugar
Stimulates the liver
Rich in Vitamin C, K, B2, A


DANDELION FLOWER TEA

8 Dandelion Flowers (fresh, and bug free)
12 oz of Boiling Water
And Honey added to taste

Pour the boiling water over flowers and let steep for 5 minutes..  add Honey


DANDELION ROOT TEA

1 Tbsp. Roasted Dandelion root
1/2 Tsp. Minced Fresh Ginger
1 Cardamom Seed
12 oz water
and of course Honey or sugar to taste.
