So what are the benefits or cilantro an herb also goes by the name of coriander. I remember the first time I was introduced it was by a childhood friends family. The family was Mexican and I remember my friends mother would make every thing fresh from salsa to shrimp cocktail to even enchiladas. I loved the smell. Matter of fact I looked forward to when his mother made salsa and I would grab a spoon and dip it in to get the first taste. My fondest memories of cilantro was always a delightful one.
As I began to study cilantro I wanted to know why I got such a wonderful feeling whenever it was present. In my research I found that cilantro’s energy is warm. This is amazingly funny because according to the five earth elements it falls under metal. The earth element for metal is sadness. However according to the five elements of taste it falls under spicy. The five elements for spicy and taste falls under joy! So that would explain why I love it so much.
Now as I get more into the health benefits of cilantro understand that this is a powerful herb. So powerful that it could not be consumed by itself. When preparing cilantro always make sure you mix at least one once of cilantro per 8 ounce glass of water. Cilantro is commonly used in many heavy metal detox programs. It’s been found to remove HEAVY metals from the body. In the process in which you can instantly remove large quantities of heavy metals you would have to do it using an enema. The quick release of an enema prevents loosen metals from doing further damage on the way out.
Cilantro and a coffee enemas can be fast, effective way to remove those toxic metals. However like many detoxification methods, they’ll need to be done repeatedly to achieve through results.
You may need a heavy metal detox if:
You eat non-organic foods grown in pesticides and fertilizers
Eating fish- living in polluted environments become polluted (just as we do)
Smoke cigarettes, there are hundreds of chemicals in cigarettes-heavy metals too.
Foods cooked in aluminum cookware or aluminum foil
Take over the counter-drugs, including antacids
Use mainstream deodorants: Females often apply aluminum after shaving and creating small holes in skin. Aluminum absorbs either way, but this makes it easier.
I bought fresh cloves from Whole Foods and for the first time I made clove tea it detoxify s the body. Clove contains significant amounts of an active component called eugenol, which has made it the subject of numerous health studies, including studies on the prevention of toxicity from environmental pollutants like carbon tetrachloride, digestive tract cancers, and joint inflammation . You can buy whole cloves from Whole Food Market. Add on tablespoon of whole clove. Add 4 cups of water let simmer over night.
