Medicinal plants, Alholva

Medicinal plants are essential in a garden and have many advantages for both us and our vegetables. In addition, they are very easy to grow and very resistant to both diseases and pests.

Fenugreek is a medicinal plant used since the Egyptians and has multiple properties, among which the improvement of the digestive system stands out. Nowadays it is quite easy to find it in herbalists or other types of stores as a supplement in capsules and it is still widely used, especially in the countries of North Africa.

Precisely in North Africa is where it is most common to grow it since it is used as a food condiment for its aromas. As a curiosity, it is said that its oil was used for embalming and that it is a powerful anti-wrinkle agent. I don't know how much truth there is in this, but if someone tries it, please leave a comment with your personal experience.

Thank you very much for supporting my blog and I look forward to your comments.!
