Product description dried Teasel root
Latin name: Dipsacus fullonum. Also known as Wild Teasel or Spiny Teasel. In English, the plant is often referred to as Wild Teasel or Fuller's Teasel.
Teasel is a robust, biennial plant notable for its long stem with spiny leaves and its characteristic, egg-shaped flower heads with purple flowers. It is a plant native to Europe and has been valued there in folk medicine for centuries.
Although Teasel is less well-known in official phytotherapy, the plant has gained popularity in naturopathic circles in recent years, partly thanks to the work of herbal authors such as Wolf-Dieter Storl. As a result, interest in this special European herb is growing, even outside of folk medicinal use.
Teasel is not only used in Europe. In Chinese medicine, the related species is used. Dipsacus japonicuhas been applied for centuries. There it is known as Xu Duan, which means 'repair what is broken'.
