Description
Also called broad-leaved or curly dock, yellow dock provides favorable medicinal benefits for the liver and the colon. The root, specifically, contains anthraquinone glycosides, rumicin, chrysarobin, tannins and oxalates providing support for conditions such as anemia, skin diseases, liver congestion. Cholagogic, alterative, mildly laxative, and blood tonic actions have been conformed in laboratory analysis.
Yellow dock is used for chronic skin diseases including psoriasis, herpes, various eruptions, eczema and acne. It is also used for symptoms of iron deficiency in the blood. Finally it can be used for most inflammatory liver and gallbladder disorders as well as various gastrointestinal diseases. This plant has similar tonic properties to the Chinese ho shou wu (Polygonum multijlorum), except that it might have a little more active laxative properties. However, in smaller doses, it will only serve to regulate bowel movement.
Yellow dock root is effective for cancer and has been used for acute leukemia.
Dosage: For skin diseases such as eczema, acne and psoriasis, combine yellow dock and burdock roots with burdock seeds, stillingia, red clover and sarsaparilla root. Make into a strong decoction simmering one ounce of the combination 20-30 minutes. Take three cups daily.
For anemia combine 6 grams yellow dock root 4 grams each of ho shou wu and tang quai root and 15 grams Chinese astragalus root.
Take in decoction twice daily.
