What is nettle leaf powder?
Nettle leaf, also known as Urtica dioica, is the leaf of a plant known for its stinging hairs on its leaves or stems. Traditional medicine has utilized the leaf for centuries. Originating in Europe, North Africa, and Asia, the leaf found extensive use throughout the Mediterranean area during the Greek and Roman eras.
These days, it may be purchased as freeze-dried leaves, dry leaves, or extracts for tablets, drinks, and juices. Modern research has supported many of the traditional theories regarding the therapeutic advantages of nettles.
How do I use nettle leaf powder?
It may be immediately added to soups, stews, rice dishes, and smoothies, among other culinary creations. Additionally, nettle powder may be macerated as nettle leaf extract, combined into herbal vinegars, or infused as a nourishing nettle tea. Many nations and civilizations around the world have used nettle for ages.
Nettle leaf powder benefits:
promotes bone and skin health. Stinging nettle's antihistamine, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial qualities can cure acne and other skin issues (Gupta, 2021). Amino acids, proteins, flavonoids, and minerals that help develop strong bones—such as iron, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and zinc—are abundant in stinging nettles.
◉ Blood sugar management: A substance found in nettle leaves called UD-1 functions in the body similarly to insulin. However, there are differing results from different studies about nettle's ability to reduce blood sugar in diabetics.
◉ Better respiratory health: Folk medicine has historically used nettle to treat minor respiratory disorders and seasonal allergies. Researchers speculate that this could be because nettle lowers the histamines our systems produce in reaction to allergens. However, more research is required in this area.
◉ Prostate health: Nettle leaf may be useful in treating the symptoms of certain prostate disorders, including benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), which is an enlargement of the prostate gland. Nettle leaf slows the proliferation of prostate cells, which may help decrease the impact of testosterone on the prostate. However, it cannot take the place of conventional therapy for BPH.
◉ Osteoarthritis and Joint Pain: Joint discomfort is common in people with arthritis, usually in the hands, knees, hips, and spine. Nettle enables people to cut down on their NSAID (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medicine) consumption. This is a perfect combination since long-term usage of NSAIDs may result in various dangerous negative effects.
Additionally, studies show that topically applying nettle leaves to the area of discomfort reduces inflammation and may help treat arthritis. Nettle aids in alleviation when taken orally. Another study that was published in the Journal of Rheumatology demonstrates the anti-inflammatory properties of stinging nettle against rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune illnesses.
