🌿 Traditional medicinal usage
Burdock root has a long history in traditional herbal medicine systems around the world:
-
Traditional Chinese Medicine: known as Niu Bang Gen, used as a blood-nourishing and cooling root to help the body balance internal heat, support liver wellness, promote clear skin, and encourage natural detox pathways. Often brewed in long-simmered decoctions and tonic teas.
-
Ayurveda: valued as a Pitta-balancing, cleansing root, traditionally used to support digestion, reduce occasional inflammation, and purify the blood.
-
Western herbalism: used for centuries to support skin conditions (like acne, eczema, psoriasis), lymphatic movement, kidney wellness, digestion, and circulation. A staple in detoxifying herbal blends and bitters formulations.
-
Indigenous and folk herbal traditions: widely brewed to support seasonal cleansing, skin clarity, joint comfort, digestive ease, and overall vitality.
In historical apothecaries, burdock root was frequently prepared as a detoxifying tonic, skin-supportive infusion, and seasonal cleansing root tea or extract.
