What are the healing properties of dandelion?
A large part of the Bulgarian yards and meadows, in the spring, are covered with a yellow carpet, whose healing qualities are unfortunately unknown to many of us.
Besides, to beautify the young girls in the form of a beautiful wreath in their hair, Dandelion has valuable healing properties.
Useful for our body is every part of the flower at different times of the year.
Unpleasant and compulsive is the taste of the herb immediately after it is removed, but after a short soak in water (to remove the bitter juices) and flavor, we can enjoy a wonderful vitamin salad, which, besides health, becomes a guardian of our figure .
Extremely useful for problems with the excretory system, grit and kidney stones, liver, gall stones and others are the roots of the plant from which tea is prepared.
The curative properties of dandelion leaves are not unknown to one of the most common diseases among young and old - Diabetes and blood pressure regulation.
For eczema and warts, the stems of the flower-herb, and in particular the "milk," which we can see each time we tear a blade of the plant, come to help, the problem areas are smeared with the white liquid, given that it could turn them into orange-brown colors.
Perhaps most of the readers remember that I mentioned the properties of ALL Dandelion parts above, and here I have not talked about the colors of the dandelion. Well, it is time to note that honey from the colors of the dandelions is extremely aromatic.
But what about our health?
Dandelion honey is an excellent antiallergen, just like the roots of the plant, it is useful again for bile problems and acts laxative in constipation, its beneficial effect on colds and ailments in the body.
More about the colors of the dandelion, I must mention that it even produces wine! Yes, however great it is for many, given the minimum amount of sugars in this plant, it is a worthy rival of grapes. It is no accident that Ray Bradbury, he calls his novel "Dandelion Wine".
Dandelion is among the most valued herbs in some eastern countries, such as China and India. This is one of the most common and affordable herbs.
However, it is extremely important to take this plant, as with most things, to be careful with the amount we consume.
