    It is even better than your article says

    Hey Bobby, I was just doing some research myself on dandelion tea and I found this article. According to this, it is supposed to have some good anti-cancer properties.

    You might be interested in it?

    Absolutely!

    I have lots of them in my yard, but I think I will find some roots that are already prepared till I can grow some specifically for that purpose. The seeds are easy to find, and I have a little hydroponic garden in a sunny window at home so I will see if I can make a weed grow there. I would HOPE so because they seem to be impossible to kill in the yard! LOL

    I have a lot of things that I already use on a daily basis, so adding one more helpful item won't be much of a stretch. Having some nice relaxing tea doesn't seem like it would be too challenging.

    How about you? Think you will add it to your regimen?

    I used to drink Dandelion

    I used to drink Dandelion Root Tea all the time, like at least 1 cup a day - usually around bed time.

    My ONC told me to stop, as it may hinder treatment because of its anti-oxidant properties - just like vit C.  I had been drinking since 6 years ago when I had a syncope episode.

    My liver enzymes were elevated a week or two after syncope and I read Dandelion helps support liver function, so incorporated that in my routine as well as turmeric.

    I still sneak in 1 or 2 cups between chemo sessions.  I usually sprinkle a little turmeric and cinnamon in with it - just a dash.  I kind of like the bitter flavor of the root tea.

    If you are in midst of treatment I'd consult your oncologist prior.
