There used to be horseradish in every garden, but nowadays it has been almost completely forgotten, even though it is a very healthy plant.
Let’s see the benefits of horseradish:
– It has a higher vitamin C content than lemons.
– If you grate horseradish fresh, its essential oils cleanse the airways and disinfect the room.
– It can be used to make a compress for migraines, insect bites and is also good for toothache. The leaves can also be used to soothe inflammation, pain and rheumatism.
– Eaten raw, it has immune-boosting, anti-inflammatory and detoxifying effects. It also has antipyretic properties and can be used for weight loss.
It is low in calories but high in fibre.
In addition to vitamin C, it also contains many vitamins and minerals. It also contains vitamin B, calcium, copper, zinc, iron, phosphorus, manganese and magnesium. Its metabolism boosting effects only work with regular exercise and proper nutrition.
If you grate the horseradish fresh, put it in cotton and place it on your throat or chest. If you have a migraine, put it on the back of your head, and if you have a fever, on the soles of your feet. Drinking a tablespoon of honey horseradish in the morning can be a very good immune booster.
Horseradish has great antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral properties.
It can also be used for coughs and colds. Fresh horseradish boosts the metabolism, as do chilli, lemon and citrus fruits. Inhaling the vapour of grated or boiled horseradish is also very good for relieving nausea. The aromas released reduce discomfort, relax the muscles and reduce headaches and nausea. Horseradish is most beneficial when eaten raw. It can also be used to make a muscle-relaxing ointment, just grate the horseradish and mix it with olive oil or even coconut oil. It can also be effective for cramps and muscle aches as well as menstrual cramps. Drinking adequate amounts of water, along with a varied diet, can also help a lot against urinary tract infections. It also cleanses the kidneys and flushes out harmful substances.
