Goosegrass (Galium aparine), also known as cleavers, stickyweed, or catchweed, is a common wild herb with a long history of medicinal use. Though often seen as a weed, it offers various health benefits. One of its key advantages is its ability to act as a natural detoxifier. Its diuretic properties support kidney function by helping flush toxins from the body, making it a useful addition to herbal teas or detox drinks. Goosegrass is also renowned for supporting the lymphatic system by stimulating lymph fluid movement, reducing swelling, and aiding in toxin removal. In addition, the herb has been used to treat skin conditions. Its anti-inflammatory properties can help calm irritated skin, offering relief for conditions like eczema or psoriasis. Goosegrass is often used topically in the form of salves or poultices to deliver these soothing effects directly to the skin.
