    I've read that nettle tea is supposed to be good for PMS but I've never been able to find it. I guess I need to make my own.

    The nettle tea they're referring to is probably Stinging Nettle, which I also have a lens about, but the nettle-leaf goosefoot is a different plant.

    I have probably passed by this many times without noticing it much but I just don't recall seeing it. That is so interesting that the seeds can be ground to make flour.

    Wonderfully illustrated. I'll recognize this if I saw it now.

    Is there a difference between this and stinging nettle? Nettle is one of my favorite herbs and Oh, so good for you!! Nice lens.

    Yes, this is a different plant from stinging nettle. The leaves have a somewhat similar look, but the stinging nettle leaves are more perfectly symmetrical and the goosefoot leaves are heavier.

    I also have a stinging nettle lens: http://www.squidoo.com/urtica

    Interesting. It's amazing how many things are edible that we don't know about.
