Monterey Club Sheep's Sorrel Herb Powder 454G 1LBS

Sheep’s sorrel is a spreading, invasive pasture plant that favors locations where blueberries grow.

Powdered sheep's sorrel can be used to make tinctures and other botanical preparations, but is usually encapsulated as a dietary supplement. The herb is considered nutrient dense because it contains high levels of every vitamin between A and U, as well as minerals and a significant amount of quercitin and beta carotene.
