Nettle Leaf Extract

Nettle Leaf (Urtica dioica)

Nettle is a nutrient-rich perennial in the Urticaceae family, recognized by the tiny hollow hairs on its leaves and stems that produce a characteristic stinging sensation when touched. Native to Europe but now naturalized throughout much of the world, Urtica dioica thrives in moist soils and is traditionally harvested in spring before flowering, when the leaves are at their peak.

For centuries, nettle has been valued in herbal traditions across Europe and beyond as both a nourishing food and a versatile medicinal herb. Historically, it has been enjoyed as an herbal tea, prepared in tinctures, applied topically, and even woven into strong fibers comparable to flax and hemp. Rich in naturally occurring vitamins and minerals, nettle has long been used to support upper respiratory health, healthy urinary function, and overall vitality. Today, dried nettle leaf remains a staple in herbal infusions, tinctures, and nourishing botanical blends, pairing especially well with dandelion, burdock, and other restorative herbs.
