About Nature’s Sunshine Burdock

Burdock (Arctium lappa) is a remarkable biennial plant native to Europe and Asia that has been valued in traditional herbal practices for centuries. This hardy member of the Asteraceae family produces large, heart-shaped leaves and distinctive purple flowers, but it’s the long, nutrient-dense taproot that holds the greatest herbal significance.

Nature’s Sunshine Burdock delivers 720 mg of premium burdock root per 2-capsule serving, carefully sourced and processed to maintain the plant’s natural integrity. Burdock roots contain mucilage, sulfurous acetylene compounds, polyacetylenes and bitter guaianolide-type constituents, which contribute to its traditional use in herbal wellness practices.

Traditional Uses Across Cultures

In traditional Chinese medicine, burdock root has been used for hundreds of years and is known as “niúbàng” (牛蒡). In traditional Chinese medicine, it’s used to get rid of toxins and as a “blood purifier.” European herbalists have similarly valued burdock for its traditional applications, particularly in supporting overall wellness.

Natural Antioxidant Power

Burdock root has been shown to contain multiple types of powerful antioxidants, including quercetin, luteolin, and phenolic acids, which are naturally occurring compounds that help protect cells from oxidative stress. These antioxidants work to neutralize free radicals in the body, supporting cellular health and overall well-being.

Rich in Prebiotic Fiber

The root of the burdock plant is also naturally rich in inulin, a prebiotic fiber that serves as food for beneficial bacteria in the digestive system. This makes burdock a valuable addition to a healthy lifestyle focused on digestive wellness and gut health maintenance.

Nature’s Sunshine’s commitment to quality ensures that each Burdock capsule contains pure, potent burdock root without artificial additives.
