In 2019 I found myself needing a major reset and I thank God for the most supportive spouse EVER! He jumped in with me. We choose more whole foods, a fat forward approach that fuels our bodies. This journey led me to help my family & sister lose OVER 200 lbs in less than a year. I now help women stop counting calories and start LOVING food without feeling deprived.

Hey There
Did you know that people who live in the southern regions of India consumed more than 200 grams of turmeric per capita in 2012 alone? That’s because this medicinal plant offers numerous benefits such as reducing inflammation and promoting liver detox.
But turmeric is not the only plant with medicinal properties. You can also take advantage of chamomile or echinacea, for example, to promote good health. Here are a few medicinal plants that you can grow in your house and enjoy their amazing therapeutic advantages!
Flax has been cultivated for thousands of years by various civilizations all over the globe. That’s because flax seeds offer numerous properties such as reducing the inflammation in the body. Excessive inflammation can become chronic and cause different types of ailments including diabetes or autoimmune diseases. Flaxseed also improves regularity and reduce blood pressure, so you should consume about 1 teaspoon of flax seeds every day.
Ginko has been used in Chinese medicine for centuries. This is one of the oldest medicinal plants that features amazing benefits for the brain. Ginko is known to improve memory and cognitive function. Some studies suggest that it can also be useful to treat dementia or to prevent neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s or Alzheimer’s disease. If you want your brain to remain sharp and active, grow Ginko in your house.
As mentioned earlier, turmeric has been used by Asian people in various dishes and recipes. It promotes liver health and it helps with detoxification. On top of that, turmeric is also good for treating joint pain or arthritis. It has been discovered that it also has anti-inflammatory properties, so it can help your immune system fight microbes and viruses.
If you’re a person who gets cold regularly, that’s because you probably have a weak immune system. Echinacea is known for boosting the function of the immune system, so you don’t get the flu that often. You can grow this plant in your house and use it for tea infusions. Echinacea has little to no side effects, so you can safely supplement with this medicinal plant to improve your immune system.
The last one in our list is valerian, a plant that can treat sleep problems such as insomnia. You can grow valerian in your house and use both the leaves and the root to make a delicious tea. Drink one cup of valerian tea before going to bed and you’ll eventually enjoy a more rejuvenating and restful sleep.
As you can see, there are many types of medicinal plants you can take advantage of to improve your health and enjoy a more comfortable living. Remember that these healing herbs don’t have serious side effects, but just for your safety, consult with your physician and find out their recommendations when it comes to consuming them.
