Teasel

The teasel or dipsakos is an herb known since ancient times and stands out for its bitter taste. It is mainly used as a diaphoretic, but also as a tonic to increase the appetite and for the good functioning of the stomach, while it is considered an excellent diuretic.

Also, sea buckthorn is recommended for skin diseases, such as dermatitis, while it relieves the pain of rheumatism and gout. The name of this particular herb comes from the ancient Greek word Dipsakos, which is the name of the disease diabetes, in which a common symptom is thirst and this is because the plant forms a basin at the base of its leaves, where a quantity of water accumulates. 

It is worth mentioning that in ancient times it was also called "Aphrodite's bath", as it was believed that when a girl drank the water collected on its leaves she became beautiful.
