Warnings
Be sure to talk to your doctor before you try any new herb or supplement. Even all-natural foods and drinks like tea can cause allergic reactions or interact with certain medications. Some herbs and supplements can be harmful to people with certain health conditions.
Potential Side Effects
Consuming dried or cooked stinging nettle is generally safe. There are few, if any, side effects.
However, be careful when handling fresh stinging nettle leaves, as their hair-like barbs can harm your skin.
These barbs can inject an array of chemicals, such as (1, 2Trusted Source):
Acetylcholine
Histamine
Serotonin
Leukotrienes
Formic acid
These compounds can cause rashes, bumps, hives and itchiness.
In rare cases, people may have a severe allergic reaction, which can be life-threatening.
However, these chemicals diminish as the leaves are processed, meaning that you shouldn’t experience mouth or stomach irritation when eating dried or cooked stinging nettle (1).
Pregnant women should avoid consuming stinging nettle because it may trigger uterine contractions, which can raise the risk of a miscarriage (40).
Speak to your doctor before consuming stinging nettle if you’re taking one of the following:
Blood thinners
Blood pressure medication
Diuretics (water pills)
Diabetes medication
Lithium
Stinging nettle could interact with these medications. For instance, the plant’s potential diuretic effect may strengthen the impact of diuretics, which can raise your risk of dehydration.

I've just discovered the joy of nettles and I'm looking forward to the health benefits. I love the idea of a pesto. Thanks!
Let me know if you try it OK?
8.04....priceless...just like the thoughtful advice in your film. We've added nettles to our soup this evening...pesto next. Thank you.
You can use Nutritional yeast instead of parmesan cheese in your pesto. It has got a cheesy taste and is used in vegan recipes.
Thanks for the info.
Awesome recipe idea big thanks, great vid.x
Welcome to my 1st "Wild Food" summer series..
One of my goal this years is to learn how to "forage" the wild food around me.
Nettle is free natural food, they are very delicious & good for you as well. I am just a beginner at this and if you would like to do the same I encourage you to follow my new "Wild Food" summer series.
In today's episode, I will show you how to harvest, prepare it & use it to make free health tea, pesto & how to preserve it.
If you are curious about how its like making this episode, then stay on until the end and met me at "Behind the scene" Let me warn you, I am not the make-up type, you might be shock to see me without any make up or nice clothing, on top of this, you might wonder how do i actually sound like in person?
Hope you give this idea a thought, if you tried the recipe, I love to hear from you!
The printable written recipe is now on my website, the link is at the video description box above.- Click at "Show more"
Thank you for sharing. I so agree with you re eating nutritional foods we can find growing in nature. I wish you luck on your health journey 😀👍❤
Thanks, same wish to you!
Thank you for posting this video, I felt inspired
So welcome!!
This was a great view I loved it and if you can go foraging for your food and everything like that besides going to the grocery store but anyway it's a great get away from the house and from the hustle and bustle of being around multiple people thank you for the video it was great
Unfortunately we can not get everything from nature 😭
congrats for video ! i harvest nettles every year ..
Hi
I add nutritional yeast instead of cheese to my dandelion pesto.I will try nettles soon Lovely videos!!
Hi Estee, I just found your video for the first time and it’s so charming! I’m so happy to see your video and hear you talk about the same kind of things I care about with food. I happen to have a lot of stinging nettle popping up in my backyard right now. I live in San Francisco and it’s kind of damp here and I decided to try cooking it to eat it instead of throwing it away. Thank you for the great ideas! I hope you’re still making videos!
Yes, I still make vid, #shorts video.

Look very nice to eat
It's delicious ❤️
👍😊❣️
Me too I have pollen allergy, once after I tried the nettle soup, I wanted to eat it again and again, I guess my body wanted to have stinging nettles.
That's true, I have been eating it for 5 years every spring.. It's really help my allergy too.
I reccomend whole grains. Often times people avoid foraging, becasue the oppurtunity cost is high in comparison to the amount of money saved.
I agree😉
you just dumped wonderful tea don the sink, well at least the water treatment plant will enjoy it. but I love your vid!!!! :)
Tq, I recently learned that we can use it as fertilizer too.
Please answer me cause I wanna make these beautiful recipes, the nettles plants I have are loaded with flowers.can I leave them on with the stem and use it whole or should I only use the leafs?
Please use only the leafs.
@@esteeinsweden thank you so much, I'll try it as soon as I can.
I'm really excited to make it.
I think when the nettle is flowering it is already too old - the leaves are too tough and fibrous and it deposits crystals in your kidneys. Use only the first growth of the year. Full of iron.
You are right, I don't pick them when they are matured. I only pick them when they are young and tender.
They were too young few centimetres but is flowering idk why.
Where are u from? Your accent's like from Singapore/HongKong.
Singapore.
Also, when you boil then a lot of the nutrition is lost in the water. I recommend streaming the leaves instead.
Good idea! Thanks Dan!😀
Unless u save the leftover liquid n drink it like tea.
We have to much nettle in Nepal. But different from this nettle,
Cool, whats the name?
May I get nettles seeds for planting?
Not sure if you can find them at flower shop.
@@esteeinsweden ok! Thank you so much!!
