QUESTIONS OF NUTRITION – VEGETABLES AND HERBS (INTRODUCTION)
If you want healthy vegetables they must be grown organically. They depend upon the soil in which they are grown and for the soil to be healthy it must be worked and looked after properly. If you live in the country, take advantage of the various edible plants growing wild in the woods and fields. You will find wild spinach and many other wild vegetables, all tasty and nutritious. Do not neglect to gather and eat them. Bear’s garlic (ramsons), for example, is a prized vegetable, one of the best blood-purifying plants there is, and it should be gathered and eaten in the spring. It regenerates the blood vessels, and lowers and normalises blood pressure. The blood pressure problems that often accompany old age, brought on by the loss of elasticity of the arteries, can be effectively counteracted with brown rice, bear’s garlic and mistletoe tea, if taken on a regular basis. Young nettles, finely chopped and mixed in with salads or steamed like spinach, are also very good for the blood.
