Yellow Dock

Traditionally, Yellow Dock Root is regarded as a blood purifier and is used primarily to cleanse toxins from the body. During the Industrial Revolution, use of the herb increased as the environment became more polluted.

The herb (Rumex crispus) can also stimulate a bowel movement within a few hours after ingestion to help remove lingering waste from your intestinal tract. Efficient elimination can help prevent toxins from getting into your liver, gallbladder, and bloodstream and this decreases the workload on these systems.

In this manner, Yellow Dock Root effectively aids in eliminating foreign substances that can overburden the liver.
