Yellow Dock Root CS (Wild harvested)

Yellow Dock Root CS (Wild Harvested) (Rumex crispus) is a robust perennial plant found throughout North America, Europe, and Asia. The deep taproots of yellow dock have been a staple in Western herbal traditions for centuries, valued primarily for their traditional association with supporting liver health, healthy iron levels, and gentle detoxification.

Flavor and Aroma

Yellow dock root has a strong, earthy flavor with a distinctive bitterness that reflects its potent herbal character. The dried root pieces range from deep brown to golden hues. The aroma is earthy with subtle bitter undertones. While the taste is too strong for most people to enjoy as a standalone tea, it blends well with milder, sweeter herbs.

Traditional Uses

Herbalists have relied on yellow dock root for centuries. Its traditional uses center on supporting liver function, promoting healthy bile flow, and aiding the body’s natural detoxification processes. Yellow dock is also one of the classic “blood-building” herbs in Western herbalism, traditionally used to support healthy iron absorption. It appears in many classic liver and skin support formulations alongside burdock root, dandelion root, and milk thistle.

How to Brew Yellow Dock Tea

Use one to two teaspoons of dried root per 8 ounces of water. Simmer on low heat for 10 to 15 minutes for a decoction. Strain and enjoy. Blending with burdock root, dandelion, or licorice root helps balance the strong bitterness.
