Amazing Health Benefits of Cilantro - The Mega Benefits of Eating Fresh Cilantro

Recently I noticed I began to use cilantro at unprecedented levels in my cooking and had decided to look cilantro up on the web, even though I only recently started to cook and use it in my cooking and garden four years ago but never to the extent of my recent usage amounts. I wasn't going to search as to why I had been craving this herb, but what were its supposed effects, if any on our bodies. I was shocked to learn how great cilantro actually is for us and to our overall health.

It was only until now that I was curious what the herb was all about. And why the heck was I started to naturally crave this herb? I had to get to the bottom of this but promptly! I knew I had used it plenty of times in my 'Oh So Famous Salsa' recipe. But I needed to know what did cilantro do, if anything to us and our bodies. With the research I found, this article was created and I just had to share.

Herb

Who knew That Cilantro Was This Good!?!

Want a cure all for viral and bacterial infections and more? Well read on...albeit maybe novel, the ability to use cilantro greatly increases our ability to clear up recurring infections, both viral and bacterial especially when eaten with omega-3 enriched foods such as nuts. But there are many other wonderful side effects of eating Cilantro. Who knew?

Why Fresh?

Although we all like to use fresh herbs if we can get them, it seems that there are more benefits than first thought, especially when us foodies started to first go all hog-wild on the "got-to-be-fresh-happy" with the use of non-dried herbs in our cooking. So many of us grew up with dried herbs, and for many more, dried herbs that would stay in our cupboards for years. I know I am not alone here. That by the time we reached (some sort of ) adulthood, we wished to cook no more "out-of-the-box", but back to the real deal, thankfully to food network stations everywhere telling us the importance of a dishes success depends on the use of the freshest of herbs.

This trend in "using fresh herbs as a must" is so true that McCormick, this past fall, placed out one page magazine advertisements in several magazines and even created a website to assist visitors in checking out just how old their herbs were in their cupboards. If you think I am kidding check and note if any of your spices from the McCormick's is from the Baltimore factory, if so, note that this bottle is over 15 years old! Yuck! I had four or five in my cabinets that were promptly tossed. Yeah I know, who knew!

Using Cilantro In Your Cooking

Cilantro has a mild peppery taste, flat leaves and is similar looking to flat-leafed parsley. It is a family member of the carrot family - and as you can tell from its looks, the tops of this wonderful herb resemble that of a carrot top.

Cilantro is great as an edible garnish. If you mince it and sprinkle any dish you have before you, literally, including your breakfast eggs, you will receive its curing and healing attributes of the cilantro herb.

But I have recently resurrected its' importance in being a main point in my daily diet. After a little research, I learned that cilantro seems to have some very interesting (and affordable) super health benefits and can be seen as a major cleaner of the body in ridding heavy metals such as mercury, lead and aluminum from one's body.

Yes, there's more people, cilantro is also a blood cleaner. And heck why not eat what you love and detox your body simultaneously?

It seems that for years there have been drugs available to help rid the body of the heavy metals called, 'Chelation therapy' [which] using chemical agents like EDTA has long been used to help remove heavy metals" but it seems as if cilantro is one of the affordable natural substances than can remove these metals naturally.

So what do you do to get this herb to assist in your healing?

Best eaten raw, but you knew that already! Some suggestions include using cilantro pesto (recipe below) over pasta, spread onto toasted Italian bread, a dollop over your cooked meat, etc. you get the idea here people! You can also add this peppery herb to cooking, from any and all rice dishes, and pastas to meat dishes.

This herb is also very affordable in fresh bunches at your grocery store. My local store has them at .00 for (2) two nice-sized bunches. A small handful (2 teaspoons minced) used in your salads every day for two to three weeks which is the recommended amount to have its curing properties work on your issues it seems, will have you feeling better than you have been in a long while.

Do wash your cilantro very well though. The best way is to fill a large bowl with cold water, and gently put the tops in tops down into the bowl. Stirring the end of the bunch of cilantro, swishing it around will help loosed any soil that may be on it. You can then shake dry and place it in a bad, much the same you would do wish washed lettuce.

Want To Grow Cilantro?

Cilantro is super easy to grow from seed, - which is the coriander seed - hey who knew?!? But be sure to cut your plant often like parsley, for constant fresh growth. Likes sun, and the cilantro is a simple herb that also helps to keep the bugs away. Another natural remedy! A great plant for kids to try as one of their first herbs due to its quick growing in the garden and low-maintenance gardening requirements. Cilantro also does fairly well in a extra sunny kitchen window.

A friend of mine has a great cilantro 'pesto' though his is very hot, there are many variations I see on the web. The main point it that you will increase your ability to heal yourself from viral and bacterial infections - especially re-occurring ones with adding 2-3 teaspoons of fresh cilantro with your diet every day for two to three weeks.

I have started this trend of uping the use of my cilantro amounts now for a week, and my head seems clear and my body feels great. Now I know why from this research. I will let you all know how fantastic I feel in two weeks on this.

Here's one recipe for Cilantro Pesto.

Cilantro Pesto

1 clove garlic

1 cup almonds, cashews, or other nuts

1 cup packed fresh cilantro leaves

2 tablespoons lemon juice

6 tablespoons olive oil

Put the cilantro and olive oil in blender and process until the cilantro is chopped. Add the rest of the ingredients and process to a lumpy paste. (You may need to add a touch of hot water and scrape the sides of the blender.) You can change the consistency by altering the amount of olive oil and lemon juice, but keep the 3:1 ratio of oil to juice. (It freezes well, so you can make several batches at once.)

Happy Healing Healthily in a Hurry!

As a side note though, there is one spice tin I keep simply for its name, shape of its tin and for the nostalgic purpose in reminding me of my mother's kitchen cabinets which had more spices than any neighbor and was more organized than any kitchen cabinet I knew of then. And yes, she was a great cook and known outside the family for her parties full of fantastic homemade food. And for these reasons why I probably write so much on food besides cooking up a storm any chance I get. But I am loving my cilantro but hard, an herb she never got to learn to try. I will make sure my friends and family do not have the same experience but instead learn and more importantly add this oh-so affordable herb to their everyday diet for better health!

Homemade Organic Gardening Pesticides - Are They Effective?

Growing organic fruits and vegetables in your own garden is certainly a rewarding experience. You insure the produce you grow is chemical-free and as healthy as possible. The alternative is to purchase produce from a market or farm along with the unknowns of what chemicals were used to treat and grow the produce.

Maintaining the delicate balance of your organic garden's ecosystem is the best way to keep your plants healthy and insect-free. When that balance is upset and insects become a problem, the need for a pesticide may arise. Choosing between a homemade remedy and a commercial pesticide is a hard choice for an organic gardener. It goes against every belief you had about your organic garden. It was supposed to be a chemical-free environment. Why would you actually put chemicals into your garden? It's a valid question.

Herb

If you identify the insect and prepare and apply the recommended pesticide correctly, a homemade remedy can be as effective, and in most cases, significantly cheaper, than a commercial pesticide.

Consequently a homemade pesticide is usually the safer bet and logical first choice for an organic gardener. You can control the ingredients in the mixture and avoid anything that you may not prefer to apply to your plants. In the event the homemade remedy does not work, you can always follow up with a commercial pesticide at your discretion.

For as many pests as there are out there ready to feed on your precious plants, there are an equal number of homemade remedies to control each of these insects. Some remedies, quite frankly, just aren't practical. (for example, there's one that requires you to collect dead bugs and blend them into a smoothie!)

Two Homemade Remedies For Common Garden Insects

Aphids, whiteflies and other soft-body pests - Mix a few drops of mild dishwashing detergent with water and spray on plants leaves (make sure you get both sides and avoid spraying on flowers!)

Cabbageworms and spider mites - Mix 2 tablespoons salt in 1 gallon of water and spray on affected plants.

As an alternative to spot treatments after an infestation has already occurred, you can use a general repellent instead that is applied as a preventative measure at regular intervals throughout the growing season. A recipe for one such treatment is provided below.

General Pest Repellent

- 1/4 cup of hot red peppers (red pepper sauce works well as a substitute)

- 1/4 cup of fresh spearmint (look in your produce for fresh herbs or grow your own!)

- 1/4 cup horseradish, both root and leaves (prepared horseradish doesn't work as well)

- 1/4 cup green onion tops

- 1 tablespoon of liquid detergent

Grind the spearmint leaves, horseradish, onion tops and peppers together with enough water to cover everything in a blender or food processor. Strain the solution and add the liquid to half-gallon of water with the detergent. Store the mixture for a few days in a cool place and then spray on affected areas. Outside use only. Re-apply once every two weeks or sooner after a heavy rain or watering.

It is important to note that the effectiveness of any home remedy, preventative or otherwise, will depend on the type of pest you are trying to control and the severity of the infestation.

Considering all of these factors may seem a bit overwhelming and stressful. However, if you are successful in keeping the harmful garden insects in check, you will be rewarded by your garden with some of the freshest, healthiest produce on earth. Please never forget one of the most important things about your garden. You planted it because gardening is fun.

Natural Hair Loss Remedies

Fact: There is no sure-fire way to prevent all hair loss. However, some methods that have been used work on some people. Here are some suggestions for natural remedies to hair loss. Massage Massaging the scalp in general for a couple of minutes a day can stimulate blood flow to the hair follicles and in mild cases stimulate some hair growth in minor cases of temporary hair loss. There are several electric massagers on the market that have an attachment for scalp massaging as well. An oriental method called Qi Gong (pronounced Chi Kung) has been used to increase circulation to the scalp and face also. Aromatherapy A blend of six drops each of lavender and bay essential oils in a base of four ounces of either almond, soybean or sesame oil massaged into the scalp and allowed to sit for 20 minutes has been used by aroma therapists to stimulate the scalp. Saw Palmetto Extract There is a definite connection between the prostate and hair loss for men. Saw Palmetto has been found to work in fighting benign prostatic disease by lowering levels of DHT, which is a known cause of androgenetic alopecia. Saw Palmetto extract is an effective anti-androgen and shows promise as an effective treatment for hair loss prevention. More information on Saw Palmetto for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Women on oral contraceptives or hormone therapy should not take Saw Palmetto. Nettle Root Extract Nettles are rich in vitamins A and C, several key minerals and lipids that can be beneficial to the hair. Nettle Root Extract has been used successfully in Europe as an inhibitor of 5-alpha reductase in treating BPH. Rosemary and Sage Rosemary and sage are two herbs that have shown benefit traditionally when used externally. Boil together in water rosemary, sage, peach leaf, nettle and burdock. Then strain the loose herbs from the liquid and use the liquid to wash the hair daily. Jojoba Oil If you are predisposed to seborrhea, eczema, psoriasis, or dandruff, you could consider using jojoba oil. Mexicans and southwestern Native American nations have used jojoba oil traditionally for centuries to promote hair growth and the control of dandruff. Jojoba oil is great for hypoallergenic skin because it is a great moisturizer and mimics the scalp's own sebum. Aloe Vera Aloe Vera has been used by Native Americans, Indians and many in the Caribbean to promote healthy hair and prevent hair loss. Aloe's can help the scalp by healing it and balancing the pH level of the scalp while cleansing the pores. A common preparation of Aloe Vera gel with a small amount of wheat germ oil and coconut milk is used as a shampoo and has traditionally shown great benefit. Henna Henna is a traditional Indian herb that acts as a natural conditioner and is excellent for the maintenance of healthy hair. It can help heal the hair shaft by repairing and sealing the cuticle, protecting hair against breakage and loss of shine. Polysorbate-80 Polysorbate-80 is an FDA approved surfactant that is also approved as a food additive. Although not proven, Polysorbate-80 is said to remove deposits of DHT and cholesterol from the scalp. Polysorbate-80 is being recommended by some naturopathic practitioners as an application for the scalp approximately 15 minutes prior to shampooing. Cleansing and Detoxification Cleansing should be a major part of your regimen to maintain and grow hair. Many scalp related diseases are directly the result of toxemia, while toxins in the body adversely affecting the body's systems indirectly affect other conditions. Cleansing can be performed through oral means regularly and occasionally by enema or colonic irrigation. More remedies for detoxification Psyllium husk Fiber is vital to cleansing, and most North American diets are deficient in natural fiber. Psyllium husk is a bulking laxative agent that can be used to safely move waste through the colon. Psyllium is a very good substance as it gently scrubs the walls of the colon to remove waste that is stuck to the walls.

Exercise Finally, although exercise does absolutely nothing directly to grow hair, most holistic practitioners recommend it. Exercising can improve blood flow, the delivery of oxygen to the cells of the body, and help the digestion of foods, all things that aid the health of hair follicles. Disclaimer: The advice here is not presented from a medical practitioner. Any and all dietary and medical planning should be made under the guidance of your own medical and health practitioners. This information does not replace medical advice from a professional physician.

Making a Potted Herb Garden

Making a potted herb garden can be a much more convenient and easier way to grow herbs than having a garden in your yard. Your plants can grow year round, as they are portable and can be moved into a heated building when the weather turns cold. The soil can be monitored and controlled easily and a simple flip of a light switch is a better solution than hoping the sun comes out.

Sometimes growing herbs in pots can be difficult because pots do not offer the same moisture control and necessary nutrients as outdoor soil does. Many herbs do fine in pots with some extra attention from the grower. These hearty herbs include basil, dill, mint, sage, and lavender.

Herb

Take great care that the seeds you are getting are of good quality. They can spoil just like any other type of food. The air we breathe can do damage to them if they aren't properly cared for. It is really a simple process, but take great care to keep them fresh and discard of any exposed or damaged seeds.

When making a potted herb garden you do not have to keep them indoors. It is possible to grow your herbs inside or outside. Either way you choose, you need to know the amount of sun that each plant should have. There are herbs that like full sun, while others grow well when placed in partially shaded areas.

Make proper preparations to the soil and make sure the amount of moisture is sufficient. Lavender enjoys the sun and needs an alkaline soil that is dry. Clay chips will maintain the moisture in a pot, but this can also lead to too much moisture. When in a container, the clay will absorb the moisture and hold it for extended periods of time. You should make sure that your soil contains a mixture of sand and clay.

Root rot is the most common problem for plants in containers. This is the result of excessive moisture. While it's fine for most plants to be continually wet, most herbs prefer drier soil. When we say moist, that doesn't necessarily mean always wet. Try this: Push your thumb on the surface of the soil. Is it a little springy? That means it's moist. Is it hard? That means it's dry. Next, take a toothpick (or even better, a moisture gauge). Stick it in the soil to see its moisture content. While the toothpick is good in a pinch, the gauge will provide a more accurate and useful reading.

There are many great reasons for making a potted herb garden. On thing you can use your herb garden in pots for is keeping culinary herbs on hand all year long. Keep the pots outside near the kitchen door in summer and bring them in and sit them on the windowsill in winter.

Four All Natural Antibiotic Herbs

Many people already know that all natural herbs can be quite healthy for them. There are herbs which help with high blood pressure, herbs which curb your appetite, herbs which help with balancing out your bodies insulin levels and more.

Many people don't realize just how healthy and helpful herbs can be though. In fact, most people who use an herb for something, don't realize that same herb is quite useful for a variety of other health issues. And many people don't realize just how much more is actually out there, at inexpensive prices, over the counter.

Herb

There are several herbs for instance, which work as powerful infection fighting antibiotics. Let's briefly explore a few of those...

1. Garlic. Since garlic is a very popular herb for use in blood pressure problems, many people already know it's quite healthy for you. What you might not know though, is that garlic is a powerful infection fighting herb.

The main component of garlic is called allicin. This is what makes garlic have such a strong odor, but one milligram of this compound is said to be as potent as 15 milligrams of standard Penicillin.

A serious mistake many people make though, is to buy garlic in an "odorless" pill or capsule form. These products which have no odor also have little to no effectiveness on your health. Because allicin is the key part of garlic, and that's the part that causes the odor, removing the odor also removes the ingredient you needed in the first place.

2. Golden Seal. Another very powerful natural antibiotic, this is an herb not many people have heard of. Golden Seal comes in pills and capsules too, and you can buy either ground root versions, or ground leaf and stem versions. The root variety is the strongest for infection fighting.

Golden Seal is also a natural source of insulin though, so anyone who is hypoglycemic - a.k.a. you have low blood sugar problems - should not take Golden Seal.

3. Echinacea. This herb has become quite well known and popular in the last five to ten years. It's another excellent infection fighting herb, particularly for lymph gland infections and problems.

Echinacea is also wonderful to take when you feel a cold or the flu coming on. It won't usually prevent the cold or flu, but it does tend to reduce the severity of your symptoms, and often it helps make the experience last much shorter than normal.

4. Kelp. Kelp is a natural herb which has a salty taste, and can even be used in place of table salt for food seasoning. The powerful infection fighting properties of Kelp come from it being a natural source of iodine, and iodine helps your body kill infections and bad bacteria.

Kelp is also excellent for helping to regulate your thyroid, which is part of why it works so well when there's an infection in your body. The Kelp helps your thyroid release extra iodine into your system for fighting the infection.

Now this is just a small summary of the powerful health properties these herbs have. There are many more benefits each herb offers and there are many more, lesser known herbs available for keeping you and your family healthy.

How to Identify Your Herb Garden Plants

There are a few methods that you can utilize in identifying herb garden plants. As some species are not being labeled properly in stores upon buying them, having the required skills to identify them by yourself will allow you to give the best care to your plants. If you have inherited plants, then having those identifying skills will be of great help to you as well.

There are some key aspects involved with identifying your plants. First, you need to have a good eye for detail. The variations between one type of herb plant from another may be identified through the total number of leaves of the plant, the number of veins within each leaf or the slight differences in color. Don't be afraid to take your time in identifying your plants. Doing a thorough examination will be able to help you in making a correct identification. While two different species of plants may just have small physical differences, the way to take care of them may still vary.

Herb

Once you're finished with the detail, what you're going to need next is the access to information. When it comes to identifying herb plants, having information through reference or pictures to compare with is vital in order to ensure that you've made a correct identification. Knowledge plays a key role when you're uncertain of the breed of the plant you're having.

It's important to remember that even with all of the data you've gathered, identifying these plants isn't an accurate science. Your plant's health can deceive you, making you believe that the plant you have is actually something else. An unhealthy specimen may not have all of its leaves, making it hard for you to identify what species of plant you're having. It is always best to identify your plant after you have restored it to full health.

An additional benefit to identifying your plants is the ability to know what's not an herb plant. It's not unusual for blooming yet lethal plants to be taken into a household. If you find out that you have one in your garden, then destroy or donate that plant in order to prevent it from causing harm to your family. Poisonous plants shouldn't be burned, as the fumes can be lethal as well.

By positively identifying your herb garden plants, you will be able to have the necessary skills in making sure that they are well-taken care of, protecting you and your family from the dangers of toxic plants, and knowing when you have bought an exotic or uncommon herb plant. This skill is also helpful when you're planning to breed plants, as it gives you the ability to determine when a plant is ready to be bred or not, and having compatible plants to breed it with.
