Stinging nettle root is a medicinal herb that has been used for centuries to treat a variety of health conditions. It is derived from the stinging nettle plant, which is native to Europe and Asia, but now grows worldwide.
Stinging nettle root contains a variety of active compounds, including lignans, polysaccharides, and lectins, which have anti-inflammatory, diuretic, and analgesic properties. It is commonly used to treat urinary tract problems, including bladder infections and kidney stones, due to its diuretic properties. It may also help reduce inflammation and pain associated with conditions such as arthritis.
In addition, stinging nettle root has been used to support prostate health in men, as it can help reduce the size of an enlarged prostate gland. It may also have benefits for women, as it has been shown to help alleviate symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes and vaginal dryness.
Stinging nettle root can be consumed in a variety of forms, including capsules, tea, and tinctures. When brewing stinging nettle root tea, it is recommended to steep one teaspoon of dried root in a cup of hot water for about 10 minutes.
Nettle (Urtica dioica) forms underground rhizomes, which along with the roots are dug out in early spring and autumn. Then they are washed and dried. Preparations from the roots of nettle arouse the growing interest of athletes, due to the presumed effect on testosterone levels, and thus anabolic effects. Root extracts are also a popular addition to diuretics and to relieve the symptoms of prostate hyperplasia.
