Teasel

Product description dried Teasel root

Latin name: Dipsacus fullonum. Also known as Wild Teasel or Prickly Teasel. In English the plant is often referred to as Wild Teasel or Fuller's Teasel.

Teasel is a robust, biennial plant that stands out because of its long stem with spiky leaves and its characteristic, egg-shaped flower heads with purple flowers. It is a native plant in Europe and has been valued there for centuries in folk medicine.

Although Teasel is less well-known in official phytotherapy, the plant has gained popularity in naturopathic circles in recent years, partly due to the work of herbalist authors such as Wolf-Dieter Storl. As a result, interest in this special European herb is growing, also outside of its folk medicinal use.

Teasel is not only used in Europe. In Chinese medicine, the related species Dipsacus japonicuhas been used for centuries. There it is known as Xu Duan, which means 'repair what is broken'.
