I started drinking dandelion root tea back in October per the suggestion of my naturopathic doctor. I was drinking about 16oz per day. I lost ten pounds over the last few months. I was taking it for my liver and didn't realize it had so many additional benefits. Thanks for the video, time to go make myself a cup of tea.

Mom didn’t nurse me. She also smoked while pregnant with me. Screwed from the start! Yes. I am taking Milk thistle and was told to start drinking dandelion tea. Here’s to hoping

I’ve been eating it straight up & notice a significant difference

The doctor speaks the truth!  Dandelion, milk thistle tea with some organic lemon juice and some raw, local honey....I got rid of my gall bladder pain doing this a few years ago.

Anyone wanting to cut coffee or caffeine out of their diet needs to try Dandy Blend instant herbal beverage!! it is the best coffee alternative made from dandelion. It has no caffeine no GMOs no sugar no gluten no preservatives nothing artificial and it's a great way to switch over from coffee without any caffeine withdrawal symptoms. Not to mention the flavor tastes just like coffee but absolutely no bitter taste or acidity. I just purchased this recently at my local health food store! So happy to hear all the great health benefits from dandelion.

I grew up eating it. It is one of my favorite veggies. I like making a salad with garlic, red wine vinegar and extra virgin oil. I eat that mixture between slices of Italian bread. It is spring now I will forage my backyard. In the winter I buy it at the markets.

I am drinking it now, the first time I bought it from the supermarket, this is the first time I'm drinking dandelion tea. Thank you doctor Axe.

Hi, this is Beverly, i took a dandelion capsule and opened it up and put into a cup of warm water with fresh squeezed lemon into it and dranked three cups a day morning noon and evening, all because my stomach was not digesting right and at the same instance my appendex was hurting on my lower right side, i dranked this dandelion and lemon and warm water mix 3 times a day for 1 week then at the end of the week my bowels released old fecal hard crusty matter in my poop, i had to literally pull out this old fecal that was at the end of my butt hole and would not come out til I reached up and pulled it out with the tips of my fingers, i did not realize the relief of the sore appendex til about a few days later, i was free of the infected appendex that had the old fecal matter build up, i actually did not know what I was doing at the time til I figured out the pain was gone and how it happened, really surprised me, my appendex was saved in just one week, as I dranked the dandelion opened capsule into the water with the lemon juice I ate very little at each meal and dranked the dandelion and lemon tea water first before I ate.

i LOVE the way you SHOW us the brands that are upstanding. i cannot tell you how much time is saved from this. because you are a doctor, someone who is trained making a recommendation plus you are HOLISTIC. i have bought so many products due lack of knowledge and then when i gained that knowledge, i realized what i have been doing was WRONG! believe me, you are getting paid back for your selfless service. we buy your quality products and take your suggestions. be blessed times a billion! <3 <3
