The Benefits of Burdock Root
What is Burdock Root good for?
A herb that is native to North Asia and Europe, Burdock contains carbohydrates, volatile oils, fatty oils, and powerful antioxidants like phenolic acid, quercetin, and luteolin. While the herb itself has great nutritional value, the most beneficial part of Burdock is in its root. This has made Burdock root popular in alternative medicine as well as in natural beauty care products.
Burdock root is extensively used for promoting hair growth and preventing hair loss. It contains a large number of beneficial components, particularly for hair growth, including tannins, vitamin A, mucilage, phytosterols, and essential fatty acids which deeply nourish hair. Burdock also increases blood circulation on the scalp and hence provides intense oxygen and nourishment to hair follicles, stimulating strong hair growth.
In addition to this, Burdock also helps in maintaining a healthy scalp which also provides the grounds for stronger and faster hair growth. It relieves the scalp of irritations, dandruff, dryness, flakiness, and other scalp disorders that cause hair loss and weaken the hair shaft. The fatty acids moisturize the scalp while nourishing it and locking in hydration to ensure healthy hair.
The Healing Properties of Burdock Root
Burdock is rich not only in antioxidants but also in essential minerals like iron, magnesium, manganese, selenium, zinc, and calcium. All these work together to help heal and correct skin conditions. It is effective in combating conditions like acne, eczema, and psoriasis. It has powerful detoxifying properties which help deeply cleanse skin and remove toxins.
Its high antioxidant content along with its overall nutritional profile gives Burdock the ability to boost the metabolism of the external layers of skin. This helps increasing cell regeneration and also boosts skin elasticity which can powerfully impact the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This has a noticeable anti-ageing effect on skin, restoring a youthful and more supple appearance.
