About Nettle Tincture: Nettle leaf is one of the most nutritious plants on earth; categorized as a nourishing food and nutritive herb. Nettle leaf is high in minerals and micronutrients like iron, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and various amino acids (the building blocks of proteins). 
 
Nettle is delicious and supportive all year round, nourishing and revitalizing the whole body and becoming a steadfast ally during the changing seasons.
Nettle enhances a feeling of overall well-being and vitality.  Researchers have shown that stinging nettle is an effective treatment for seasonal allergies and that may be due to nettle's ability to reduce the amount of histamine the body produces in response to an allergen.  It works very effectively for food induced hive reactions. 
 
Its deeply green leaves support the immune system, the lymphatic system, and the kidneys. The leaves help to maintain healthy energy and stamina by supporting the adrenal system and metabolic functions of the body. Nettle supports healthy tissues and cells, offers resilience to our souls, and helps to build loving boundaries for the whole body.
