NE T TLE
WHAT IS IT? A stinger you’re probably all too familiar with WHERE IS IT FOUND?
Asia, North America – and your nearest green space
BEST FOR: When you’re feeling burnt out. ‘Nettle’s cleansing constituents support the whole body, but especially the nervous system,’ says Landon. Stress-busting aside, it’s packed with iron, vitamin C and calcium.
HOW TO TAKE IT: Try it as a side dish. Don some gloves to pick your leaves and wash them in cold water. Heat 1 tbsp coconut oil in a frying pan with chopped garlic. Cook the nettle leaves in the pan until they wilt. Season and add a squeeze of lemon. They won’t sting when eaten, promise.
