Organic Nettle Root Tea

Stinging Nettle Root is a widely respected herbal remedy known for its ability to support urinary and prostate health. It is commonly used to ease symptoms linked with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), including nighttime urination, weak urine flow, bladder irritation, and difficulty emptying the bladder. Its natural compounds help reduce inflammation in the prostate, offering relief without harsh side effects.

Beyond urinary support, nettle root is also used for joint discomfort, as a natural diuretic, and for its astringent qualities. The entire nettle plant has a long history in traditional medicine. Although the fresh leaves cause a stinging sensation due to histamine and formic acid, the dried or processed plant is completely safe when used correctly. Historically, nettle tea has been used to nourish the body with iron and minerals, support pregnancy, and increase milk production. Nettle juice and extracts have been used to aid conditions such as anemia, allergies, kidney issues, arthritis, and hay fever.

Externally, fresh nettle has been applied to minor wounds to help stop bleeding because of its high vitamin K content. An old practice called “urtication” used controlled stings from the plant to stimulate circulation and ease rheumatic pain.

Nettle root is also valued outside of medicine. Young leaves can be cooked like spinach or added to soups and salads. The plant’s fibers have been traditionally used for specialty paper, rope, and natural dyes.

Most people tolerate nettle well, though excessive use may cause mild stomach upset or skin reaction. Suggested forms include tinctures, leaf extracts, root extracts, teas, and dried leaf preparations. When used as directed, Stinging Nettle Root offers natural support for prostate health, joint comfort, kidney function, and overall vitality.
