Haven Organics STINGING NETTLE 150gms

Since ancient times, stinging nettle has been used in herbal medicine. Urtica dioica gets its scientific name from the Latin word uro, which means "to burn," because its leaves can cause a temporary burning sensation when touched. However it can be safely consumed once it has been processed into a supplement, dried, freeze-dried, or cooked.

The ancient Egyptians used stinging nettle to treat arthritis and lower back pain, as well as seasonal allergies, and Roman troops rubbed it on themselves to keep warm.
