One of nature's supreme superfoods, nettle is rich in vitamins and nutrients vital to our health and wellbeing. The leaves can be used when young or as the plant ages and the seeds can be harvested too. Cook leaves fresh to disable the sting before eating or dry for teas. The seeds are great for kidney health and the root can be used for hair growth. Each part of the plant will help to strengthen you from the inside out. Nettle is best used in a tea or vinegar extraction when taken internally.
