Stinging Nettle — Medicinal Use

Cautions to Know

• Diuretic effect: Traditionally used to "help eliminate excess water" and support kidney/urinary tract health. Use caution or avoid if taking diuretic medications or managing a kidney condition — not disclosed in the source pin.
• Blood sugar / diabetes medications: Source claimed nettle "may help improve insulin sensitivity" as a bare benefit — same pattern as the Ginseng card. Anyone on insulin or oral diabetes medications should use caution; this wasn't disclosed in the source.
• Hormone-related claims (PMS, menopause): Source claimed nettle may "support hormonal balance" with only a generic footer disclaimer attached. A hormone-specific claim needs a hormone-specific caution: avoid or use caution during pregnancy, and check for interaction if taking hormonal medication.
