The Duck Flower is a popular alkaline detox that is great for removing excess mucus and toxins from the body. The flower is from a plant that is located in the Caribbean, Central, and North America. Also known as the “The Duck’, this is great for a quick detox that can last up to 8 hours.
The Duck was made famous by Dr. Sebi, who used it at his Usha Village in Honduras. This is an age-old tribal and spiritual medicine and is not meant to be taken lightly.
The plant has a lot of benefits. It was traditionally used as an anti-inflammatory agent and for the treatment of snakebites. Medicinally, Duck flower is also used to increase sexual desire; it is used for intestinal pain, gallbladder pain, arthritis, gout, achy joints, rheumatism, eczema, weight loss, and wounds. Recently, it was found to be helpful with weight loss. [1]
