Today I am going to talk about the atamel plant, commonly known as the Paraguayan boldo. Besides atamel, in some places of Venezuela it is also called ibuprofen and in others more acetaminophen.
ITS USE
The atamel, has become a plant that has multiple beneficial properties for the body. This is so, that it is a very useful herb, its leaves are used for culinary purposes particularly to lower fever, digestive system aid, liver diseases, stomach disorders, indigestion, abdominal distension, constipation, apathy, insomnia, gallstones, hangovers, rheumatism and amoebas. It also has different qualities, which have made it a tool of natural medicine.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
Despite its benefits, atamel contains significant amounts of ascaridol, a toxic compound. The overdose of atamel can lead to overexcitation, cramps, exaggerated reflexes and convulsions, ideally it is not consumed for long periods.
INFUSION
For its healing properties it is recommended to wash the leaves of atamel, an approximate of seven leaves and boil them for 15 minutes. Allow to cool and take.
Our body is vulnerable to many external things, remember that we live in a society where bacteria are everywhere and that our defensive system must help your process with a healthy diet.
