PRIMARY Historically, dandelion was prized for a variety of medicinal properties, and it contains a wide number of pharmacologically active compounds.[39] Dandelion has been used as an herbal remedy in Europe, North America and China.[39] "Empiric traditional application in humans of dandelion, in particular to treat digestive disorders, is supported by pharmacological investigations. ? Some results, e.g. concerning possible diuretic activity, are even contradictory and require a thorough reinvestigation."[39]It has been used in herbal medicine to treat infections, bile and liver problems,[39] and as a diuretic.[39] Dandelion root is a registered drug in Canada, sold principally as a diuretic.[citation needed] Dandelion is used in herbal medicine as a mild laxative, for increasing appetite, and for improving digestion.[40] The milky latex has been used as a mosquito repellent[41] and as a folk remedy to treat warts.[42] With very low or even no toxicity at all, T. officinale can be used as a drink like tea on a daily basis.[citation needed]
