Dandelion Root

Compare every Dandelion Root product across UK retailers on Suppio, ranked by true value - price per active dose, not pack size. Prices refreshed daily.

Supports liver and kidney function, mild diuretic properties

We rank Dandelion Root by price per gram of active ingredient - not by pack size - so a bigger tub with a worse price per dose can't outrank a smaller one that's actually cheaper.

What it is

Dandelion Root is the underground part of the Taraxacum officinale plant, which is more commonly known as the common dandelion. It is used as a supplement for its mild diuretic properties, meaning it helps the body get rid of excess water and salt through urine.

Why it's used

It is used by some people to support the function of the liver and kidneys. However, it is important to note that there are currently no established clinical protocols that support using this plant to manage liver diseases in humans, and these results require further validation in human clinical studies.

How it's made

The process begins by harvesting the roots of the dandelion plant from the ground. These roots are cleaned and then dried to remove moisture. Once dried, the roots are ground into a fine powder, which can then be put into capsules or sold as a loose powder for teas and other supplements.

What it typically costs

This ingredient is generally mid-range in price. This is because while the plant grows wild and is easy to find, the commercial process of harvesting, cleaning, and drying the roots to a pharmaceutical standard requires specific labour and equipment.
