Ethereal Nature Cynara Cardunculus (artichoke) dried herb 100gr - artichoke is one of the most famous plants in our country

Cynara cardunculus - artichoke is one of the most famous plants in our country, being used as a food from antiquity.

History reports that the artichoke some 6 centuries ago, was considered one of the most effective aphrodisiac products, where it strengthened and improved sexual performance. As a herb it was also used by the Romans (the leaves) as a diuretic and digestive.

Artichoke is used by today's herbalists to treat liver and kidney disorders and arteriosclerosis. Two of the active ingredients of the plant - kannin and scholymus - have been shown to stimulate bile secretion. This results in the help of incomplete digestion and the stimulation of the organism in case of insufficient liver function. Kernarin has also been shown, through clinical research, to lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood. For this reason, Aginara is considered effective in the treatment of arteriosclerosis.

Artichoke is used whole (all parts of the plant cut). In addition to cinnarin and scholysomide, it contains psylomosides, inulin, ciproepectin, taraxaterol, phenolic acids (up to 2%) and a volatile oil (mainly containing B-Selenin and Caryophylline).

The recommended dosage from the therapists for Artichoke is 6.0g per day. Use 2.0gr (one teaspoon) in 250ml water three times a day.
