Rumex acetosella
Small European sorrel used in folk medicine and as edible pot herb, component of the Essiac tea formula for cancer support.
Sheep Sorrel (Rumex acetosella) is a small perennial herb traditionally used as a nutritious food and in the herbal cancer formula Essiac. It contains anthraquinones, flavonoids, and oxalic acid, contributing to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and mild diuretic properties. Modern research supports its use as a nutritive tonic and for supporting urinary health.
The anthraquinones (e.g., emodin) and flavonoids in Sheep Sorrel exert antioxidant effects by scavenging free radicals and upregulating endogenous antioxidant enzymes. Anti-inflammatory activity is mediated through inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) pathways. The oxalic acid content contributes to mild diuresis by increasing renal solute load, while vitamin C supports immune function and collagen synthesis.
