New Roots Herbal New Roots Essence

New Roots Essence stays true to its name, as we’ve created a blend with 9 wild-crafted traditional botanicals:

• Nutrient-rich burdock root, a herb native to Northern Asia and Europe that was used for centuries in many ways, including as a diuretic
• Sheep sorrel, used as a diuretic to accelerate cleansing and renewal
• Red clover, often used for detoxification programs
• Pau d’arco, an added element which is critical for a formula that accelerates elimination, as the immune system can be vulnerable
• Watercress, gaining popularity due to its dense nutritional content
• Slippery elm bark, used by the First Nations as a remedy for common ailments
• Blessed thistle, a commonly used ingredient in combination formulas for gastric health
• Rhubarb, a good source of fibre
• An added touch of nutrient-rich kelp that completes New Roots Essence

The combination of all these traditional botanicals can be used as an alternative to help remove accumulated waste products via the kidneys, skin and mucus membranes.
