This Herb Prevents 9 Different Eye Problems Including Cataracts!

Parsley`s volatile oil components – particularly myristicin – have been shown to inhibit tumor formation while protecting against cell damage from oxidation. Parsley also supports a healthy heart, aids in maintaining strong and healthy bones, and can even be used to help control blood sugar levels in those suffering from diabetes.

JUICING WITH PARSLEY

Fresh parsley is better than dried form of herb. It should be deep green in color, fresh and crisp. Avoid bunches that have wilted leaves or a yellow color. Choosing organic parsley is the best way to reap all of its health benefits without the risk of unwanted pesticides. Keep it refrigerated in a bag, ready to juice or cook with.
