DH - 2: GREEN JUICE RECIPE - A KIDNEYS CLEANER

 

GREEN JUICE RECIPE - A KIDNEYS CLEANER

GREEN JUICE RECIPE - A KIDNEYS CLEANER

The pair of bean-shaped kidneys, each about the size of a fist, is vital organs in our body. They are located, one on each side of the spine, near the middle of our back, just below the rib cage. The kidneys perform many functions to keep our blood clean and chemically balanced.

Our body uses food for energy and maintenance. Wastes in the blood come from food that we consume and from the normal breakdown of active tissues, such as muscles. Every day, a person’s kidneys process about 200 quarts of blood and filter out about 2 quarts of waste products and removes excess water. The wastes and excess water flows to the bladder through two tubes called ureters as urine. The bladder stores urine until releasing it through urination.

A suggestion that consuming an infusion of

Coriander leaves is a good remedy for kidney pain.

Here’s an amazing  green  juice  recipe  that’s made with fresh  coriander  leaves.  The juice of coriander  ( also known as  cilantro ) is beneficial in producing vitamin A, B1, B2., C and iron. It is also highly beneficial in treating digestive disorders such as indigestion, nausea, dysentery, hepatitis and colitis.

Coriander (Coriandrum sativum), also called cilantro, kothamalli (in Tamil),  or dhania (in Hindi) is an annual herb in the family Apiaceae. In the English-speaking world (except for the U.S.) the leaves and seeds are known as coriander, in American culinary usage the leaves are generally referred to by the Spanish word cilantro.

A study found both the leaves and seed contain antioxidants, but the leaves were found to have a stronger effect. Hence, Coriander like many other spices, can delay or prevent spoilage of food seasoned with this spice. Chemicals derived from coriander leaves were found to have antibacterial activity against Salmonella choleraesuis, and this activity was found to be caused in part by these chemicals acting as nonionic surfactants.

This is the instruction to prepare the decoction.

1.     Take a bunch of Coriander / Kothumalli leaves.

2.     Wash it clean.

3.     Cut it in small pieces.

4.     Put it in a pot and pour clean water.

5.     Boil it for 10 minutes.

6.     Let it cool down.

7.     Filter it and pour it in a clean bottle.

8.     Keep it inside refrigerator to cool.

9.     Serve chilled by adding lime juice and salt

“Drink one glass of the liquid daily and you will notice all salt and other accumulated poison coming out of your system while passing urine. Also you will be able to notice that you feel healthier than before.”

Note: By the way, Coriander can produce an allergic reaction for some people.

Parsley (Cilantro) is known as best cleaning treatment for kidneys and it is natural!

Regular drinking of coriander juice, lowers the blood cholesterol and is highly effective in kidney functioning.

Coriander seeds are used in traditional Indian medicine as a diuretic by boiling equal amounts of coriander seeds and cumin seeds, then cooling and consuming the resulting liquid.

Revered in Ayurveda for centuries, this tart and slightly astringent fruit is now gaining global recognition for its impressive nutritional profile and therapeutic potential. As healthcare professionals, it's crucial to understand the science-backed benefits of nellikai to better advise our patients.  

Nellikai's potent properties stem from its rich concentration of antioxidants, particularly vitamin C, which is significantly higher than in oranges. Beyond vitamin C, it boasts a wealth of other beneficial compounds, including polyphenols, flavonoids (like quercetin), and tannins. These contribute to its remarkable antioxidant capacity, protecting the body against harmful free radicals that contribute to chronic diseases.

• Immunity Booster: Nellikai’s high vitamin C content makes it a powerful immune system supporter. Regular consumption can help bolster the body's defense against infections, reducing the duration and severity of illnesses.  
• Digestive Health: Nellikai is a natural remedy for digestive issues. Its fiber content promotes regular bowel movements and can help alleviate constipation. It also stimulates the production of digestive enzymes, improving nutrient absorption.  
• Cardiovascular Health: Studies suggest that nellikai can play a role in maintaining heart health. It may help lower cholesterol levels, reduce blood pressure, and inhibit platelet aggregation, thereby reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases.  
• Blood Sugar Regulation: Nellikai has shown promise in managing blood sugar levels. Some research indicates it can improve insulin sensitivity and help regulate glucose metabolism, making it a potentially valuable addition to the diet of individuals with or at risk of diabetes.  
• Skin and Hair Health: The antioxidants in nellikai contribute to healthy skin and hair. It can help protect against skin damage from free radicals and promote collagen production, leading to a youthful complexion. Nellikai is also traditionally used to strengthen hair follicles and prevent hair loss.  
• Liver Health: Nellikai's hepatoprotective properties have been demonstrated in several studies. It can help protect the liver against damage from toxins and promote its detoxification functions.  

Incorporating Nellikai into the Diet:

Nellikai can be enjoyed in various forms. While the raw fruit can be quite tart, it can be consumed as juice, powder, or in traditional preparations like pickles, jams, and chutneys. Nellikai supplements are also available, but it's always advisable to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new supplement regimen.  

Conclusion:

Nellikai is a true nutritional powerhouse with a wide range of health benefits. Its rich antioxidant profile and diverse array of bioactive compounds make it a valuable addition to a healthy diet.
