Nutritional Value: Nettle leaf is rich in vitamins (such as A, C, and K) as well as minerals (including iron, calcium, and magnesium), making it a valuable addition to a balanced diet.
Anti-inflammatory Properties: It is suggested that nettle leaf may have anti-inflammatory effects which could be beneficial for conditions such as arthritis and other inflammatory conditions.
Allergy Relief: Some studies and anecdotal evidence indicate that nettle leaf may help ease symptoms of seasonal allergies, such as hay fever, due to its potential ability to reduce the amount of histamine the body produces.
