I have a couple of Indian star tortoises I acquired that I am concerned have bad kidneys. I read in the book titled Star Tortoises that dandelion have good benefits to help the kidneys in some way or another.
Has this theory been tested at all? When I was reading this the chapter also claimed to do all kinds of magical health benefits with other food types. The references appeared to be more from psuedo-science "herbal remedy" type sources. I do not want to flat out discredit it. That is why I am asking all of you.
If it does help, does anyone know how it does so? Can you provide me with any links or peer reviewed studies or articles supporting these claims?
Thanks for all your time,
Cory
