PARSLEY IS NUTRITION FOR:

Fluid retention, kidneys, general nutrition.

PARSLEY DESCRIPTION:

Parsley is a well known garnish for certain meals and has a flavour that is not liked by some as it is quite strong. It is a great source of chlorophyll, being dark green, and is useful as a breath and body deodoriser. Some use it to try and hide strong smells such as garlic. (NSP also has liquid chlorophyll as a drink and in capsule form which is a mighty body deodoriser).

More importantly is the usefulness in helping the health of the kidneys and it has been used to help the urine flow more freely. One situation I read of years ago was a case where the lady boiled up loads of parsley in water and drank it to help her water retention problem. It worked for her extremely well but personally, I would prefer to take it in capsule form as 1 capsule holds a great amount of the freeze dried parsley and one doesn't have to drink something that may be bad to the taste.

The high nutrition in parsley may help to increase resistance to infection. Both roots and leaves have been used for liver and spleen problems when jaundice is present. Parsley has also been used for mild menstrual pain, and dyspepsia with intestinal colic. It may also stimulate the production of digestive fluids and enhance the elimination of wastes from inflamed joints via the kidneys.
