Useful natural remedy as a heart tonic


Lilly of the valley is a perennial plant found growing wild in Europe and North America. It is antispasmodic and a diuretic, but it is mainly recommended as a heart tonic that can safely strengthen the heart. In larger doses, it can act as a laxative. It is not recommended for use if you are useing Beta-blockers for any heart complaint, as it can cause irregular heartbeat and upset stomach.

Please add your comment and url if you have used Lilly of the valley. I would be interested to hear if it has helped you.

The amazing Artichoke

The artichoke is elegant and delicious and has been eaten as a vegetable since Roman times, so has long been known for its nutritional value.
Extracts of the leaves and roots were once used to treat arteriosclerosis, jaundice and post-operative anaemia. Artichokes provide a number of vitamins and minerals; they can also stimulate bile evacuation and act as a diuretic. In some cultures the artichoke is considered to be an aphrodisiac.
A study in Germany in 1980 revealed that Artichoke substantially lowered volunteer's blood fats and cholesterol.
Artichokes are traditionally used as a remedy to help the liver, the gallbladder, and digestion.
Other benefits of the Artichoke are it can reduce fluid retention, and may help steady blood sugar levels.
