What Stinging Nettle Leaf Is
Stinging nettle is Urtica dioica, a wild perennial covered in fine stinging hairs, eaten as a spring green and brewed as a tea for centuries. Remedy's Stinging Nettle Leaf holds 1,000 mg of dried leaf per vegan capsule, with 60 capsules per bottle. It contains the leaf only: no root.
That last point matters more than any other on this page, because nettle leaf and nettle root are sold for different jobs and studied in different trials.

1,000 mg per capsule: 1 g of whole dried leaf, not an extract.

60 capsules: 2 months at 1 capsule a day.

The full evidence map is in stinging nettle benefits, leaf versus root.

Leaf, Not Root
Europe's medicines regulator publishes 2 separate monographs for nettle: 1 for the leaf and 1 for the root. They list different uses, different amounts and different lengths of use, so a label that names the part is the first thing to check.

Nettle leaf (this product)
Nettle root

Europe's traditional use
Minor joint pain; flushing the urinary tract
Urinary symptoms of an enlarged prostate

Traditional amount
8 to 12 g of leaf a day as tea
About 450 to 480 mg of dry extract a day

Length of use
2 to 4 weeks
Long-term use possible

Prostate trials naming the part

The leaf monograph covers minor joint pain and flushing the urinary tract, for 2 to 4 weeks.[1]Community herbal monograph on nettle leaf (Urtica dioica, folium) — European Medicines Agency View source Prostate symptoms belong to the root. The side-by-side detail is in nettle root vs nettle leaf.

What the Evidence Actually Shows
Rather than print a benefits list, we print the shape of the literature. These counts came off PubMed on 8 October 2026, with sea nettle, dead nettle and horse nettle excluded, and anyone can rerun them.

What PubMed holds on stinging nettle
Count

Of the 41 records tagged as trials, 11 gave people nettle alone to swallow, and only 2 of those abstracts name the leaf. The rest test blends, skin applications, homeopathy, hens or lab samples. No trial used a 1,000 mg whole-leaf capsule.

Seasonal Allergies
Nettle is the herb people with hay fever reach for most, and searches for nettle tea for allergies rose 183% in a year. The trial evidence has not kept pace, and we would rather say so than repeat the claim.

1990: freeze-dried nettle for 1 week; 69 of 98 finished; rated only slightly better than placebo in diaries.[2]Randomized, double-blind study of freeze-dried Urtica dioica in the treatment of allergic rhinitis — Planta Medica (1990) View source

2017: root extract for 1 month; placebo improved symptoms as much.

What a fair personal trial looks like is in nettle tea for allergies, and what was tested.

Joint Comfort
Minor joint pain is the leaf's best-recognised traditional use in Europe. In people, the tested form was the sting itself, pressed onto a painful joint, rather than a swallowed capsule.

2000: 27 people with thumb arthritis; 1 week of stings eased pain more than a stingless placebo.[3]Randomized controlled trial of nettle sting for treatment of base-of-thumb pain — Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine (2000) View source

2008: knee pilot of 42 people; pain fell 1.7 vs 1.6 points.

Sting, tea or capsule are compared in stinging nettle for arthritis and joint pain.

Blood Sugar
The leaf's strongest human trial is about glucose, and it is the reason for an important caution rather than a selling point.

Who and dose: 92 people with type 2 diabetes on insulin; 500 mg of leaf extract every 8 hours for 3 months.

Caution: Could add to insulin or oral diabetes drugs.

The extract group saw no change in liver enzymes or creatinine.[4]Improved glycemic control in patients with advanced type 2 diabetes mellitus taking Urtica dioica leaf extract — Clinical Laboratory (2013) View source If you take glucose-lowering medicine, speak to your prescriber before starting.

This is the fact most nettle pages leave out. Europe's traditional nettle leaf tea is 2 to 4 g of leaf per cup, 8 to 12 g a day. One capsule is 1 g, so it is a smaller, steady amount, not a copy of the traditional tea dose.

No published factor converts an extract into whole leaf, so follow the label and give it the 4 weeks the monograph allows before you judge. How to brew it is in nettle tea benefits and how to make it.

Safety and Interactions
For a healthy adult, nettle leaf has a clean short-term record: the monograph lists mild stomach upset and skin reactions. The cautions come from medicines, and most are based on how nettle works rather than on reported cases.

Situation
Position

Lithium's own label warns that diuretic-induced sodium loss can raise lithium levels.[5]Lithobid (lithium carbonate) prescribing information, Drug Interactions — DailyMed, US National Library of Medicine View source 2 case reports linked nettle to breast changes in 3 people, including a woman taking 500 mg for allergies.[6]Stinging Nettle (Urtica dioica): An Unusual Case of Galactorrhea — American Journal of Case Reports (2021) View source The full list is in stinging nettle side effects and drug interactions.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding
There are 0 trials of nettle alone in pregnant women. Europe's regulator concluded that, without enough data, nettle leaf is not recommended in pregnancy or breastfeeding, and we follow that position.

Why midwives and regulators differ is covered in nettle tea in pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Why Choose Remedy's Stinging Nettle Leaf
No trial makes one whole-leaf nettle capsule better than another, so the honest differentiators are the part, the amount and what this page is willing to tell you.

Single ingredient: no blend to hide a second herb.

If prostate support is your goal, nettle root belongs in a different product; see the cross-sell below.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is stinging nettle leaf? +
The dried leaf of Urtica dioica, a wild plant with stinging hairs. Drying removes the sting. This product holds 1,000 mg of leaf per capsule and no root.

Is nettle leaf the same as nettle root? +
No. They are 2 parts of 1 plant with 2 separate European monographs. The root is used for prostate symptoms; the leaf for joints, urinary flushing and as a tea.

Is this product good for the prostate? +
It is not the prostate part. Of 10 nettle prostate trials, 5 name the root and 0 the leaf. For prostate support, look at a root product such as our Prostate Support blend.

Does stinging nettle leaf help with allergies? +
The evidence is small: 1 trial of freeze-dried nettle lasting 1 week, rated only slightly better than placebo in diaries. It is a reasonable thing to try, not a proven treatment.

How much nettle leaf is in 1 capsule? +
1,000 mg of whole dried leaf per vegan capsule, with 60 capsules per bottle.

How does 1 capsule compare with nettle tea? +
Europe's traditional tea uses 2 to 4 g of leaf per cup, 8 to 12 g a day. One capsule is 1 g, a smaller and fixed amount.

When should I take it? +
Morning or evening, with or without food, 1 capsule daily as on the label. Earlier in the day suits people who notice more urination.

How long before I notice anything? +
There is no trial of this exact form. Europe's monograph limits leaf use for minor joint pain to 4 weeks, which is a sensible point to judge it.

How long does 1 bottle last? +
Sixty capsules last 2 months at 1 capsule a day.

Can I take it with blood thinners? +
Speak to your clinic first. Nettle is a leafy green, and changes in vitamin K intake can alter warfarin's effect. 0 studies tested the combination.

Is stinging nettle leaf safe in pregnancy? +
It is not recommended. 0 trials tested nettle alone in pregnancy, and Europe's regulator advises against it for lack of data. The same applies while breastfeeding.

Does nettle leaf lower blood sugar? +
In 1 trial of 92 people with type 2 diabetes, 500 mg of leaf extract every 8 hours lowered fasting glucose and HbA1c over 3 months. Ask your prescriber first if you take diabetes medicine.
