Nature has some incredible things to teach us. And these lessons can be in plain view but we miss them. One such example is the herbs plant burdock.
Known in the herbal world for its culinary and medical qualities, burdock has earned itself a name forever in history. In fact it was part of the space mission. And all because a man took his dog out hunting.
