Wild strawberries – healthy not only fruit …

Wild strawberries – healthy not only fruit …

The fact that wild strawberries are delicious and healthy knows everyone. But the wild strawberry is not only a tasty, red fruit – we often forget about the inconspicuous leaves, which have quite a number of health properties. Leaves have tannins and flavonoids in their composition. From the leaves can be prepared a brew, which will have diuretic and bactericidal properties. Such a tea will also improve the condition of the gums and help to eliminate the unpleasant odor from the mouth. Throat irritation is a soothing effect of mouth and throat infections. Tannins work astringent on the mucous membranes of the gastrointestinal tract. They have anti-diarrhea and bactericidal properties. It is worth mentioning that in some forests you can find natural „plantations” of ecological grasshoppers.
