🌱 BENEFITS
Rich in inulin (a type of soluble fiber that promotes digestive health and acts as a prebiotic), burdock is famous for its detoxifying properties and its ability to cleanse the skin.
✏️ DESCRIPTION
Burdock, with its large leaves and purple flower heads, is a robust plant common in many temperate regions. It is particularly rich in inulin, essential fatty acids, and antioxidants.
Traditionally, burdock is valued for its purifying effects and positive impact on skin health, making it a favored ingredient in formulations aimed at improving and maintaining skin clarity.
😀 ANECDOTE
In Asia, burdock is valued as much for its medicinal benefits as for its culinary use: its roots, rich in fiber and nutrients, are often cooked as vegetables, appreciated for their crunchy texture and slightly sweet taste.
⚠️ SIDE EFFECTS AND CONTRAINDICATIONS
To be avoided in case of allergy to the Asteraceae family (plants including species like daisies and sunflowers).
