Product Description
Place of origin: Turkey
Ingredients: bay leaf 100%
Bay leaf is one of the oldest and most common herbs. It is grown in every Mediterranean climate region. Leaves grown in Turkey and California are the most sought after. It is preferable to use the distinctively aromatic, stem-free, green leaves. It can be used to flavor soups, potato, egg, bean, fish dishes, tomato dishes, stews, sauces, gravies, sausages, roasts, aspic, and head cheese, for preserving cucumbers, squashes, green tomatoes, and cabbage, for marinating fish, and for steaming pork and beef, for sour dishes, game marinades, and game dishes. Since the leaf is strongly aromatic, overdosing can also ruin our dishes.
The beneficial effects of bay leaf:
Stimulates hair growth and treats dandruff
Its properties have been known since ancient medicine, which is why it is a recurring component of many hair loss prevention and anti-dandruff shampoos and conditioners. Place a few bay leaves in boiling water, then let the decoction cool down. After washing your hair, rinse it through your hair and scalp.
It promotes digestion
In case of bloating or constipation, bay leaf helps to regulate the digestive system. It helps to remove toxins accumulated in the body, and the enzymes it contains facilitate the breakdown of food in the digestive system.
Cough suppressant effect
Another amazing property of bay leaves is that they can disinfect the respiratory tract. If you are suffering from severe cold symptoms, bay leaves can easily rid you of bacteria. Prepare a decoction from 4-5 leaves, let it cool, then soak a kitchen towel in it and place it on your chest.
Good for the heart
Due to its content of caffeine and rutin*, it strengthens the heart wall and helps reduce cholesterol levels. As is known, high cholesterol levels can block the blood vessels, causing a heart attack or stroke.
Relieves pain
Bay leaf has strong anti-inflammatory properties, thus alleviating pain associated with joint inflammations. A ointment can be made by mixing ground bay leaf with castor oil powder, which can be applied to the painful area and left on for 20 minutes. Massaging the forehead area with this paste may help alleviate headaches according to ancient remedies.
