• Urtica species have been traditionally used in European and Asian herbal medicine to support immune function, often prepared as a tea or decoction. This preparation may help maintain overall health during seasonal changes.

  The mechanism is not fully characterised but likely involves the presence of antioxidants such as flavonoids and phenolic acids which can modulate inflammatory responses.
