BPH symptoms are caused by an enlarged prostate gland pressing on the urethra. BPH sufferers experience varying levels of increased urges to urinate, incomplete emptying of the bladder, painful urination, post urination dripping and reduced urinary flow. A testosterone-induced BPH study on rats demonstrated that stinging nettle may be as effective at treating this condition as finasteride, the medication commonly used to treat BPH.

More about nettles

Stinging nettle tea is often used in many pregnancy teas and prescribed by herbalists and midwives as it is nutrient-rich. The American Pregnancy Association says the safety may be contingent upon whether the nettle root or leaves are used as well as the correct dosage. On the other hand, certain doses could cause uterine contractions. It is advised to discuss with your health-care provider before using this herb during pregnancy. [58]

Early in the book, Nathan meets, and is welcomed into, a gang of dastardly youngsters. One member of this gang is a non-binary character: a pair of twins who exist in the same body.

Stinging nettle is generally considered to be safe when used as directed. It is important to be careful while handling nettle leaves as they can cause hives or a rash.Common side effects include diarrhea and sweating. Because of its diuretic effect, people with kidney and bladder problems should exercise caution while using the herb. [57]

Urtica dioica subsp. afghanica Chrtek, from southwestern and central Asia, sometimes has stinging hairs or is sometimes hairless. [12]Urtica dioica subsp. dioica". Plants of the World Online. Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew . Retrieved 31 May 2023. Nettles are used in Montenegro, Serbia, North Macedonia and Bosnia and Herzegovina as part of the dough filling for the börek pastry. The top baby leaves are selected and simmered, and then mixed with other ingredients such as herbs and rice, before being used as a filling between dough layers. [43] [44] Similarly, in Greece the tender leaves are often used, after simmering, as a filling for hortopita, which is similar to spanakopita, but with wild greens rather than spinach for filling. [45] Credit for the scientific naming of Urtica dioica is given to Carl Linnaeus who published it in Species Plantarum in 1753. [2] The taxonomy of Urtica species is confused, and sources are likely to use a variety of systematic names for these plants. Until 2014 there was broad consensus that the nettles native to the Americas, now classified as Urtica gracilis, were subspecies of Urtica dioica. However, in that year the paper "Weeding the Nettles II" was published in the journal Phytotaxa demonstrating the genetic distinctness of new world nettles. [8] As of 2023 Plants of the World Online (POWO) recognizes U.gracilis as a distinct species while the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service PLANTS database (PLANTS) continues to list it as U.dioica subsp. gracilis, as does the Flora of North America (FNA).

Health Benefits

Stinging nettle has been used to make textiles like cloth and paper since Neolithic times. With fibers similar to hemp and flax, it’s a great alternative, sustainable fiber. Because the fiber is hollow, it provides natural insulation. The German army used nettle for their uniforms in World War I and used its leaves to dye uniforms in World War II. Diuretics and water pills because stinging nettle is also a diuretic and when used together can cause dehydration.
