About the ingredients

Nettle leaf is the dried leaf of Urtica dioica, a familiar green used in foods and herbal infusions. Its earthy, grassy character pairs with other leafy ingredients. Drying or cooking removes the sting associated with the fresh plant.

The leaf has traditionally been included in soups, stews and herbal drinks. In capsules, it offers adults a convenient portion of the dried botanical as part of a varied daily routine. The selected plant part is important: this preparation contains the leaf, while nettle root is a separate ingredient. A gelatin shell encloses the leaf material.
