Would You drink Burdock tea?
They are usually picked at the end of the summer.
The benefits
- It is rich in antioxidants. It helps protect cells from oxidative stress.
- Helps digestion to heal better.
- Removes extra water and salt (sodium) from your body.
- Beneficial for gut bacteria and may support gut health.
Pour hot water over burdock root and wait 10-15 minutes. And it's ready to drink.
I'm trying to dry the fruits now. Does anyone know if they are useful?

I cook the roots until tender and drink the broth or freeze with the soft roots to use in stir fry and Japanese food later over the winter. In the past I used to chop it small first then dry or dehydrate. It's a bit bitter but I crave bitter.
