Stinging nettle leaf, or Urtica dioica, is a nutritious herb that has been used for centuries for its medicinal properties. It is a perennial plant that grows in many regions of the world, and is often considered a weed due to its ability to grow in almost any condition.

Stinging nettle leaf is a rich source of vitamins and minerals, including iron, calcium, and vitamins A and C. It also contains a variety of bioactive compounds, such as flavonoids and phenolic acids, that are believed to contribute to its many health benefits.

One of the most well-known uses of stinging nettle leaf is its ability to reduce inflammation in the body. It has been used for centuries to treat conditions such as arthritis, gout, and other inflammatory disorders. Studies have also shown that stinging nettle leaf can help reduce allergy symptoms, such as sneezing and itching, by inhibiting the production of histamine.

Stinging nettle leaf is also known for its diuretic properties, making it an excellent natural remedy for urinary tract infections and other conditions that cause fluid retention. It has also been shown to have a positive effect on blood sugar levels, making it a potentially useful herb for people with diabetes.

To brew stinging nettle leaf tea, simply steep 1-2 teaspoons of dried stinging nettle leaves in a cup of hot water for 5-10 minutes. The tea has a slightly grassy, earthy flavor that can be improved with a bit of honey or lemon.

In addition to tea, stinging nettle leaf can be used in a variety of other ways. It can be added to soups, stews, and other dishes as a nutrient-rich ingredient, or taken in capsule or tincture form for a more concentrated dose of its health benefits.

I bought another product from this store & it was great!.
However my low rating is because I use Nettles for tea with a tea ball & unfortunately the packet was full of nettles still with their storks it was extremely difficult for me to pull out of the flimsy bag & I lost so much of the nettles trying to tear it up to use for my tea, I gave up & dumped it all as it was too much, I have ordered nettles from various places & never had this problem before.
Maybe if you aren't using them for tea the way I do it will be fine though.
