"Food waste" that we should stop throwing away
Here are the main edible foods that you have been conditioned not to eat and their natural benefits.
1- Strawberry leaves
Research has revealed that stems and strawberry leaves, just like the fruit itself, contain flavonoid compounds that protect against aging and cognitive decline. Strawberry leaves can be eaten raw or processed into tea
2- The lemon skin
One study showed that participants who consumed citrus juice every day (without consuming skin) had minimal protective effects against skin cancers, while those who reported eating the skin had a risk Of skin cancer lower. Add a little lemon peel to your next smoothie for an increase in vitamin C.
3- Orange peels
Orange peels are rich in hesperidin, an anti-inflammatory flavonoid that lowers blood pressure and cholesterol. Add the bark to the smoothies. You can also dry the peels and make a tea or zest by grinding them.
4- Broccoli leaves
Add these leaves to your salads and soups instead of throwing them away. Research shows that broccoli leaves contain high levels of phenolics and other antioxidants that are potent cancer fighters and they eliminate free radicals, helping to prevent aging and inflammation.
