Spring is in the air for many of us, and usually that means allergies, yard work and the weeds that cause a lot of allergies and yard work.

But the next time you see a stray dandelion pop up in your yard, don’t be so quick to dig it up. Instead, admire it for it’s stress-busting abilities.

Here’s the scoop: The leaves of a dandelion are packed with calming B vitamins and lethicin, which lessen stress and anxiety by balancing chemicals in your brain. Dandelions also boost levels of the happy chemical, seratonin.

Now, we’re not recommending that you run out and pluck these from your yard to make a meal out of. But the next time you head to the grocer, look for premixed salad kits that include dandelions or maybe try a dandelion-enhanced tea blend. And, of course, be sure to spend some time outdoors where these little wonders can be found in all their natural glory. Because there is hardly a better mood-booster than a beautiful, sunny day.
