Prep notes

Mint-family leaf. Iron and vitamin K like a small green. Identity matters — Chinese skullcap (S. baicalensis) is a different root. Brewed cup figures vary by leaf amount and steep time; this atlas row is the catalogue entry as sold.

Grocery / shop food data only. Not a wild forage guide. Thrive shows composition curiosity — not medical advice.
