The bitterness has an action on the liver and gallbladder, stimulating the release of gastric secretions which stimulates sluggish bowels and supports the absorption of nutrients (3). This stimulation of the liver encourages the hepatic detoxification processes, cleansing the blood and promoting the excretion of toxins and waste from the body. Many of the conditions this herb is indicated for stem from a need to support the body’s natural detoxification and elimination processes.
Yellow dock is an effective laxative to stimulate a sluggish bowel and gently relieve constipation. The combination of the laxative action, the toning effect of the tannins, and the stimulation of the digestive process makes yellow dock a valuable herb for treating constipation arising from a range of causes.
