In this video, I’m going to share with you what the healthiest weed in the world to eat is. A weed is a plant that’s growing in the wrong place at the wrong time. The healthiest weed you can eat is the dandelion. The Egyptians, Greeks, and the Romans consumed dandelions for various things. Dandelions have also been used in traditional Chinese medicine for over 1000 years. 

You can consume not just the leaves of the dandelion, but the flower as well. Dandelions are very high in vitamin A, vitamin C, and vitamin K1, as well as many minerals like potassium, magnesium, and even iron. Dandelions also have a spectrum of phytonutrients, one being apigenin. Apigenin is a powerful phytonutrient that may have anti-cancer effects. 

Potential health benefits of dandelion:
1. Dandelion is powerful for the liver, kidneys, and gallbladder. 
2. Dandelion is one of the most potent herbs for type 2 diabetes. 
3. Dandelion may have anti-cancer effects. 
4. Dandelion is a powerful anti-inflammatory.
