Alpha01 Organic Dandelion Root Powder 1400mg 120 Capsules

That bright yellow flower popping up across lawns and verges every spring has a far more interesting story than most people realise. Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale), a member of the daisy family, has been eaten and used across Europe and Asia for centuries, with its leaves added to salads, its flowers made into wine and its roots roasted as a coffee alternative. Alpha01 Organic Dandelion Root Powder 1400mg Capsules focus on the root, the part of the plant with the longest history of traditional use.

The Root of the Matter

Dandelion root is long, tapering and surprisingly robust, able to push deep into compacted soil. Traditionally it was dug up in autumn, when it is at its most substantial, then dried and ground. Alpha01 uses organic dandelion root that has been milled into a fine powder, so each capsule contains the whole root rather than an extract.

1,400mg in Every Serving

Every two-capsule serving provides 1,400mg of organic dandelion root powder, with 700mg in each capsule. Because there is no established Nutrient Reference Value for dandelion root, the label shows the amount per serving rather than a percentage. Taking dandelion root in capsule form means none of the earthy, bitter flavour that roasted root drinks are known for.

Organic and Vegan

The formula is short and simple: organic dandelion root powder, a hypromellose capsule shell and a small amount of organic brown rice flour to help the powder flow. The capsule shell is plant-derived, making the product suitable for vegans and vegetarians, and there are no artificial colours, flavours or sweeteners.

Responsibly Made

Alpha01 is a UK supplement brand whose products are manufactured in the EU to GMP food safety standards using non-GMO ingredients. Each batch is tested for heavy metals and microbial contaminants, and the brand makes its lab reports available. The capsules are packed in a resealable, recyclable pouch, which keeps them fresh while using far less plastic than a rigid tub.

A Two-Month Supply

Each pouch contains 120 vegan capsules, giving 60 servings at two capsules per day, so one pouch lasts around two months. Simply take two capsules daily with water, ideally with a meal. Many people like to keep their herbal supplements together in one place so they are easy to remember each morning.

Enjoying Dandelion in Other Ways

If you enjoy dandelion, you might also like experimenting with it in the kitchen. Young dandelion leaves can be added to spring salads for a peppery, slightly bitter note, while roasted root can be brewed as a caffeine-free hot drink. These capsules offer a convenient everyday alternative when foraging or brewing is not practical. As with all food supplements, they should be used as part of a varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.

Storage

Reseal the pouch after use and keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to protect the capsules from moisture.
