General Information: Hazelnut leaves come from the hazelnut tree, scientifically known as *Corylus avellana*. These leaves are oval-shaped with a serrated edge and a dark green color. While hazelnuts are famous for their culinary use, the leaves are traditionally used in herbal remedies. They are typically harvested in late spring or early summer when they are at their most potent.
Medicinal Use: Hazelnut leaves have been used in traditional medicine for their astringent, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. They are commonly used to support vein health, treat varicose veins, and reduce swelling and inflammation. In addition, they may promote skin healing and are sometimes applied as a compress for wounds or rashes. Their use in herbal medicine also includes digestive and circulatory benefits.
How to Use: One popular way to use hazelnut leaves is to prepare them as a tea. To do this, take a handful of dried hazelnut leaves, crush them slightly, and steep them in boiling water for 10–15 minutes. Strain the leaves and drink the tea to enjoy its health benefits, particularly for supporting circulation or calming inflammation. You can also apply hazelnut leaf compresses directly to the skin by soaking a cloth in the tea and placing it on affected areas to soothe varicose veins or irritated skin.
