Botanical Name: Arctium lappa

Burdock is a versatile herb with a long-standing history in both Western herbalism and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Known for its potent detoxifying properties, burdock is prized for its ability to promote clear, healthy skin and overall wellness.

Burdock has been used traditionally in many cultures for its purifying and strengthening properties. In TCM, it is known for its cooling and detoxifying effects, and in Western herbalism, it has long been considered one of the best herbs for promoting skin health.

Burdock is highly valued as a natural remedy for various skin conditions, including acne, eczema, psoriasis, and boils. Its ability to cleanse the blood and lymphatic system helps reduce skin inflammation, irritation, and chronic skin conditions. Burdock promotes the flow of bile and supports liver health, aiding in the body’s natural detoxification processes. This liver-supporting action can help alleviate conditions linked to liver congestion or poor digestion, further enhancing skin clarity.

As a blood purifier, burdock helps clear toxins from the bloodstream and is considered an “alterative” herb—meaning it gradually restores health and vitality by improving the elimination of metabolic waste. Its mild diuretic action also helps reduce water retention and supports kidney function. Burdock’s prebiotic content (particularly inulin) nourishes beneficial gut bacteria, improving digestion and supporting a healthy gut microbiome. This prebiotic effect can also contribute to clearer skin, as a balanced digestive system is closely linked to overall skin health.
