BENEFITS OF NETTLE

The tender tops of young nettles picked in the spring make a delicious vegetable, somewhat resembling spinach.

They are excellent for sufferers from gout and skin eruptions.
Fresh nettle juice is prescribed in doses of from 1 to 2 tablespoonfuls for loss of blood from the lungs, nose, or internal organs.
