Dandelion supports digestion
Dandelion is very widespread and a popular remedy for stimulating metabolism and regulating the digestive process. Dandelion is common throughout Europe and preferably grows
in meadows. Due to its thick taproot and dense, rosette-like leaves, dandelion displaces other herbs. If a meadow is regularly
grazed or mowed, the plant adapts to the cutting height and develops very short stems. Its leaves lie flat on the ground in dense rosettes.
The valuable ingredients of dandelion are considered:
• promotes digestion
• stimulates appetite
• promotes bile secretion
• stimulates liver metabolism
• diuretic
Dandelion Ingredients
Dandelion blooms between May and October and is harvested in spring for use as animal feed. Due to its bitter compounds and flavonoids, dandelion is often used in
feed for animals with digestive problems. The bitter compounds stimulate the secretion of gastrointestinal juices and bile production, thereby positively
supporting digestion. In addition to bitter compounds, dandelion also contains vitamins, mucilage, and minerals.
Dandelion Regulates Water Balance
Thanks to its diuretic effect, primarily due to its high potassium content, the liver and kidneys are activated, and metabolic waste products are more rapidly transported out of the organism.
Therefore, feeding dandelion herb is particularly suitable for periodic detoxification or for swollen legs and eczema in horses. For older animals,
feeding dandelion has proven beneficial for general metabolic stimulation.
