The good side of dandelions??

Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, oh my goodness . . . where is the Dandelion Wine? Look at this article from which I am extracting this paragraph as a teaser.

Throughout history, dandelions have had a reputation as being effective in promoting weight loss and laboratory research indicates that there is some support for this reputation. Controlled tests on laboratory mice and rats by the same Romanians indicated that a loss of up to 30% of body weight in 30 days was possible when the animals were fed dandelion extract with their food. Those on grass extract lost much less. The control group on plain water actually gained weight.

(For right now I need to keep a lid on this for fear the patrons at the Peanut Butter Cafe & Roadhouse will be demanding Dandelion garnish for their foldovers.)

  1. I have been on a diet of bottlecaps and old flip flops and have lost more weight than I did on the Dr Phil’s cardboard and tin can diet. burp

  2. My neighbor, Elze Glasgow, used to make dandelion wine every year – a strange story.

  3. And to think you were on a rampage lately trying to kill these blessed little weight control purties….. ought to be giving some apologies I think now….
