Soft‑Dried White Dead‑Nettle

£1.35

Gentle Gut & Bladder Forage

Tender tops of white dead‑nettle (Lamium album) picked before flowering, then air‑dried until soft and velvety. A sting‑free cousin of the true nettle, it’s naturally mild, slightly sweet, and prized in traditional herb lore for soothing tummies and supporting healthy urine flow.


🌿 What’s Inside & Why It Helps

  • 100 % dried white dead‑nettle leaves & tips – nothing else.

    • Mild astringent compounds calm irritated guts and bladders.

    • Trace minerals and vitamin C add a subtle nutritional lift.

    • Soft texture and light sweetness tempt cautious or convalescent pets.

Soft‑dried means the leaves stay flexible, retaining aroma and chew without crumbling.
