Artichoke is popular as a vegetable, but the herb also has many health-promoting properties.
Liver protection: Artichoke has natural protective properties for the liver. Contains powerful antioxidants that help detoxify the liver and protect it from damage caused by free radicals.
Digestive support: Artichoke extracts can stimulate the production of bile, which is necessary for proper digestion and absorption of fats. Artichoke also acts as a prebiotic, supporting the growth of beneficial bacterial flora in the gut.
Regulation of cholesterol levels: Artichoke contains compounds that can lower LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol) and increase HDL cholesterol (good cholesterol). This helps maintain a healthy lipid profile.
Anti-cancer properties: Research suggests that artichoke may have potential anti-cancer properties. The antioxidants and plant compounds it contains can inhibit the growth of cancer cells and stimulate apoptosis, the natural death of cancer cells.
Blood sugar control: Artichoke contains substances such as inulin, which helps regulate blood sugar levels by delaying the absorption of glucose. Therefore, it may be beneficial for people with diabetes or predisposition to diabetes.
Supports weight loss: Artichoke is low in calories, high in fiber and contains natural compounds that may help with weight loss by increasing satiety and regulating fat metabolism.
For best results and to avoid side effects, it is recommended to use herbs in moderate amounts and consult a doctor or herbal specialist if taking medications to rule out possible interactions.
Suggested preparation method:
Pour a glass of boiling water over 1 teaspoon of the herb and steep for approx. 10-15 minutes. In case of digestive problems, drink half a glass of the infusion three times a day.
