The dried nettle from the Azienda Agricola Cleopatra is a product dried under the sun of Sardinia using organic and natural methods, without the use of chemicals and completely handcrafted.
The nettle is a very common herbaceous plant, known especially for the irritating power of the hairs that cover its leaves and stems, but used since ancient times both in cooking and for the preparation of infusions and decoctions. In agriculture, it is also used as a natural insecticide.
Nettle is particularly rich in trace elements such as potassium, phosphorus, iron, vitamin A, vitamin C, and calcium. The leaves contain good amounts of copper and zinc, useful for strengthening nails and hair. Its richness in micronutrients makes it a plant with remineralizing properties, recommended in cases of convalescence or malnutrition. High amounts of chlorophyll confer to nettle anti-anemic properties. The plant also possesses vasoconstrictor, purifying, diuretic, and alkalizing properties.
