Benefits of Using Herbs

Think of herbs when preparing your meals.

Herbs are often planted and used as an afterthought. I encourage you to take advantage of the herbs to enhance the flavors in your foods but also because they offer health benefits.

 Some of the herbs you might have available are:

*Basil that offers anti-inflammatory, anti bacterial and anti-aging due to Vitamin A, Vitamin K and C, magnesium, iron potassium and calcium.

*Parsley that offers anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory and improved digestion.

*Mint contains antioxidants and aids digestion.

*Thyme is an antioxidant that aids in digestion containing vitamin A, iron, manganese and copper.

*Sage contains vitamin A & K and is a memory booster.

*Dill is rich in Vitamin A, C and B complex.  It helps with digestion and insomnia.  It is anti microbial and anti inflammatory.

These are just a few of the benefits of some herbs but consider using them as a part of your healthy living plan.
