Nettle, Stinging Leaf, Organic, Cut & Sifted, 16oz (453g), Frontier Natural Products

USDA certified organic cut and sifted stinging nettle leaf (Urtica dioica) — a traditional blood-building spring tonic and multi-mineral herb with documented use stretching back to the Bronze Age. Kosher, non-irradiated. Available in 100g and 453g.

Why

Stinging nettle (Urtica dioica) is one of the most versatile and historically significant herbs in the world. Its documented uses stretch back to the Bronze Age, and its seeds were carried by settlers across the globe — a testament to how highly it was valued. The leaf is the most widely used part, prized as a nutritious food, a traditional blood-building tonic, and a rich source of minerals including calcium, magnesium, and chlorophyll. Nettle leaf is naturally rich in flavonoids, chlorogenic acid, vitamin C, beta-carotene, proteins, and dietary fibre — making it one of the most nutrient-dense herbs available. As a spring tonic, fresh young nettle shoots have been eaten for centuries to support vitality and rejuvenation after winter. Dried and cut, the leaf makes a pleasant, mildly herbaceous tea with a slightly bitter, slightly salty flavour. Frontier Natural Products sources their stinging nettle leaf certified organic, harvested at peak bloom for maximum quality, and cut and sifted for easy brewing. Available in 100g (trial size) and 453g (bulk, ~503 servings).
