Nettle is a plant that has been used for centuries to improve health and wellness.
In modern medicine, research has shown that nettle contains a variety of compounds, including antioxidants, anti-inflammatories, minerals, and more, that are biologically active and benefit the body1.
Long term inflammation in the body can lead to chronic disease, including heart disease, diabetes, and asthma. Nettle hasanti-inflammatory propertiesthat work by blocking the production if inflammatory mediators in the body and helping to re-balance the immune system1.
This anti-inflammatoryactivity is why nettle has been shown to improve symptoms in autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis2. Nettle also reduces symptoms of joint pain, reduce pain medication use, and improve quality of life in people with osteoarthritis3.
Nettle alleviates seasonal allergy symptoms by acting as an antihistamine4. Histamine is the substance that causes symptoms of itching, watery eyes, puffiness, and congestion that we typically experience with seasonal allergies. Nettle has compounds that block histamine receptors and stabilize the cells (called mast cells) that normally would release histamine in the body4.
Nettle is also a nutritive plant. It provides a rich source of vitamins and minerals, including calcium, iron, magnesium, and zinc5, and antioxidants5,6.
Nettle Plant Juice provides a biologically active, whole plant source of an herb that has been used for centuries to improve overall health and wellness.

Dr. Hilary’s Tips for Reducing Inflammation
- Minimize Stress: Chronic stress causes an increase in inflammation. While stress is an unavoidable aspect of life, we can work to control our response in stressful situations. Deep breathing, meditation, setting boundaries, and self-care are all important ways that we can reduce inflammation by minimizing stress.
- Improve Diet: Processed foods, sugar, and trans fats are all causes of chronic inflammation. Focus on eating a diet rich in lean protein, a variety of fruits and vegetables, whole grains, nuts, seeds, and legumes. If you keep to the outside edges of the grocery store and cook most of your own meals, you will be well on your way to a healthy diet.
- Prioritize Sleep: Getting fewer than six hours, more than eight hours, or having disturbed sleep are associated with increased levels of inflammation. Setting a bedtime, limiting electronic use before bed, and sleeping in a dark room can significantly improve sleep quality and quantity, which reduces inflammation.
- Stay Hydrated: Water helps flush out inflammatory debris, and dehydration acts as an added stressor on the body1. Always keep a reusable water bottle with you, and set reminders on your phone, or drink herbal teas to help motivate you to stay hydrated.
- Address The Root Cause: Treat the chronic infection, injury, or environmental exposure to target and eliminate the underlying reason for inflammation.
