Historically used to encourage balanced digestion and the avoidance of constipation, Artichoke Leaf gently supports and stimulates the liver.
Although the leaves are particularly effective, all parts of the plant are bitter and stimulate digestive secretions.
Artichokes were greatly valued by the ancient Greeks and Romans. A Mediterranean home recipe uses fresh artichoke leaf juice mixed with water or wine as a liver tonic.
