Health benefits of radishes, and specifically i'm talking
about red radishes as you can see here, now, one of the most important things
in health and wellness and well being is to eat the color of the rainbow, i'm
not talking about skittles here i'm talking about fruits and vegetables. We
want to have red, white, yellow, green, blue, purple, orange, brown, you want
to eat every color because each color has it's own unique nutritional profile
of minerals, vitamins antioxidants and phytochemicals and plant compounds and
things like that which are beneficial for your health and well being so one of
the cool things about red radishes first and foremost, first and foremost I
want to share with you an interesting fact. The leaves on red radishes are
actually edible, and these leaves are a little bit old so what I recommend
doing and this is what i'm going to do in the future is to get the leaves when
you first buy the radishes, get the leaves, clean them and then just juice them
so that's what i'm going to start doing because there's nutrition in them,
there's minerals and I don't want to throw away minerals, it makes no sense
absolutely whatsoever.
So there's a lot
of parts of fruits and vegetables that we're throwing away that have a lot of
nutritional content and value so make sure to pay attention to that and i'll be
making a lot more videos about this on this channel so make sure to subscribe
below. So, radishes are beneficial for your health in several specific ways,
the first way is radishes are white internally, the actual food is white so
onions are white,which is a mineral found in food that is beneficial for protein assimilation
and absorption and really good for your hair, your skin and your nails, your
ligaments, your tendons and your joints and it's also very very
anti-inflammatory so radishes are very rich in, they are rich in sulfur which
is beneficial for your health and well being but they're also rich in vitamin C,
vitamin C is obviously beneficial for your repairing hair skin and nails,
vitamin C is great for boosting your immunity and it's just an important
vitamin to have in your diet on a daily basis, it's a water soluble vitamin
which means that it's depleted and you need to continuously have vitamin C in
your diet so that you have vitamin C in your body when it needs to operate and
function properly and optimally, so it's rich in vitamin c it's also rich in
fiber, it's very very rich in fiber, fiber is obviously beneficial for your
digestive system, it's kind of like a broom or a brush that it cleans the
intestines, the colon and really just keeps your body clean and helps kind of
gather fecal matter basically, pull it together and get you a good bowel
movement so it's rich in fiber, it's also rich in minerals like manganese,
potassium, Iron, and copper, minerals that are beneficial for your overall
health
Magnesium is very important, it's an important, magnesium
and potassium are important for your cardiovascular system, your heart,
magnesium is important for relaxation, to calm your nervous system, to calm
your heart, and to just calm your body overall and it's very relaxing mineral.
Potassium obviously is great for you know the heart once again, potassium and
magnesium and several other minerals seem to be and fiber seem to be very rich
in white foods, so onions, garlic, radishes, coconuts, things like that. So,
white foods internally I mean, obviously the radish externally is red but
internally it's white, potassium, magnesium, and fiber, very beneficial in that
way. It's also beneficial because it's got many different antioxidants that are
anti-inflammatory antioxidants for dealing and coping with oxidative stress
from your environment or toxins in your environment, it's also
anti-inflammatory, it has anti-cancerous properties and it's also, it contains
beta-carotene as well which is a beneficial plant compound for your health and
wellbeing, also in carrots and other fruits and vegetables as well. It's
mineral rich, it's vitamin rich, it also has some b-vitamins in it, some
mineral, vitamin rich, fiber rich, and it's rich in sulfur, and it's very very beneficial
for your health and well being and your digestive system specifically as well.
So, the other cool thing about them, one thing that i've noticed personally is
that when I lived in costa Rica I ate a lot of coconut, I had coconut pretty
much daily and I had a lot of radishes as well and both of them are round and
circular and they're white in color and what I found was that my eyes seemed to
become whiter and brighter,
So I believe personally that radishes, coconuts and
fruits and vegetables that have a white internal core help to whiten your eyes
and keep those healthy and it makes sense too because they have potassium,
magnesium, and all the different minerals, i'm not sure if calcium is in them
but all the different minerals that are white colored make up components of
your body like your teeth and your bone structure, the structure of your eyes
and things like that so I think radishes and coconuts and things like that are
beneficial for keeping your eyes white and keeping your eyes just healthy overall.
So, great for your digestive health, great for anti-cancerous,
anti-inflammatory, mineral and vitamin rich, they're great on salads, I just
clean them and I chop them up into little little slices and it adds a nice
little crunch and pungent flavor, a little tangy to the salads that I make so
get more radishes in your diet...
