Cleavers (Galium Aparine)

The lymphatic herb — nature's most effective cleanser for the lymph, skin, and urinary tract.

Cleavers (Galium aparine), also known as Goosegrass, is one of herbalism's most trusted lymphatic tonics. Used across European and Native American traditions for centuries, it gently stimulates lymphatic drainage, supports the kidneys, and clears toxins that manifest as skin conditions, swollen glands, and urinary issues.
