Where do you get it?

Does it work?
My first few weeks I did go to the bathroom a lot more.
-Burdock root is a diuretic, so this is to be expected.
I guess it helped to clean out my system of any unnecessary toxins.
My PMS definitely improved, I had no cramps after the 1st month and I noticed an increase in the amount of perspiration during exercise.
All in all it seemed to do me some good cleansing wise and that
can only be a good thing.
