Description

Cnicus benedictus has long been used as a digestive stimulant, bitter, and nutritive tonic. It was also eaten as a vegetable. This herb is approved by the German Commission E for its ability to increase appetite and support the digestive process and is also an approved food additive in the United States for its flavoring of liqueurs such as Benedictine.
