Happy Holidays & Healthy New Year.
Its been a while since I last wrote to you my lovelies, I have been busy studying, working on my Iridology Diploma, to bring you all the latest studies in Nutrition, Natural & Functional Medicine. My gift to you this holiday season is not a bunch of flowers! rather a bunch of Radishes..Natural products are becoming increasingly popular in a variety of traditional & complementary systems due to their potency and slight side effects. This holiday season, I present to you “Radish” A powerful bitter root vegetable, that works on your phase l and phase ll liver detoxification pathways, it contains sulforaphane, a compound that is hailed as the novel anti-tumour.Radish and all its derivatives & colours, radish-sprouts, arugula, contain high levels of antioxidants and sulforaphane, both powerful healing compounds against many disease, including hepatic & cardiovascular disease.Radish feeds commensal bacteria in your gut, that in turn wards off pathogenic bacteria.
Enjoy fresh radish, on your salads, as a pickle, or as a side to your main dish.
