🌿 Manioc from my Garden 🌿

🌿 Manioc de mon Jardinet 🌿

Il y a maintenant environ 3 ans, mon Amie Simone m’avait emmenée visiter la Case à Manioc Ragald, au Lorrain, une visite que j’ai beaucoup aimé – comme tout ce que Simone m’a fait découvrir ici, en Martinique 💚. Lors de cette visite, une des propriétaires de la Case à Manioc, m’a gentiment offert une bouture de Manioc, que j’ai de suite planté dans un pot, en rentrant chez moi. Depuis, ce plant s’est multiplié, je l’ai re-planté à plusieurs reprises, et chaque fois que je le rempote, je prend le tubercule, meme si je ne l’utilise pas (je ne cuisine pas souvent! 😉 …) je le garde un moment, juste pour le plaisir, ou le donne à un/une voisine, et en meme temps je reprend la bouture pour faire pousser une nouvelle plante.

Donc, cette racine, que j’ai pris en photo l’autre jour en replantant une bouture, est “fille” de celle qui m’avais été offerte il y a maintenant 3 ans, à la Case à Manioc Ragald 💚🌿

💚 Merci encore et toujours, Simone! 💚

Bienfaits du Manioc

“Le manioc est consommé comme un féculent car il est riche en glucides. Il peut donc facilement remplacer la pomme de terre. Sa forte teneur en amidon et en fibres le rend facile à digérer. En outre, il favorise le transit intestinal et permet de soulager les problèmes d’estomac et les irritations du côlon mais également de lutter contre la constipation et la diarrhée. Autre vertu du manioc : il est rassasiant. Une fois consommé, l’amidon gagne en volume dans l’estomac, ce qui favorise la sensation de satiété.

Le manioc permet également d’avoir une belle peau. En plus d’être riche en vitamines B, ses feuilles possèdent une action antibactérienne. Le manioc est également recommandé aux personnes diabétiques car il a un faible indice glycémique. Sa forte teneur en fibres permet de ralentir la vitesse d’absorption du sucre dans le sang.” [cit. voir ICI ]

The Dragon Fruit / Pithaya – 10 Surprising Benefits You Never Knew

 

Dragon Fruit / Pithaya – Photo Copyright © BluedarkArt 
[Source]

1. Better Than Cheerios

Dragon fruit has an extremely low amount of cholesterol, which ultimately helps the body break down this fruit quickly, keeping you happy and healthy. It’s the perfect fruit to maintain your weight and satisfy your sweet tooth.

2. Heart Healthy

Americans have increasing problems maintaining cardiovascular health. Fortunately, this fruit has an amazing superpower that helps decrease bad cholesterol levels and replenish good levels. Dragon fruit is an excellent source of monounsaturated fats, helping the heart stay in great condition.

3. Fill Up On Fiber

To clean up your digestive system, eat a dragon fruit. They have a high fiber content, which can assist with poor digestion and constipation. Eating the flesh and seeds, which contain good protein, will keep your body fortified and satisfied.

4. Active Antioxidants

To rid the body of free radicals and cancer-producing properties, you caneat foods that contain antioxidants. Believe it or not, dragon fruit is giving acai berries a run for their money.

5. Fights Diabetes

The high amount of fiber in dragon fruit can ultimately help regulate diabetes, as it can stabilize blood sugar levels by suppressing sugar spikes. However, with any dietary changes or modifications, always consult your doctor to make sure this is a good food for you.

6. Reduces Signs of Aging

Eating a dragon fruit with its rich antioxidants can keep the skin tight and young. You can even make a face mask using the fruit combined with honey as a natural alternative to anti-aging masks.

7. Treating Colored Hair

Dragon fruit juice is an excellent agent for treating colored hair. By simply putting the juice or a conditioner containing dragon fruit on your scalp, you can protect your chemically treated or colored hair. This will keep the hair follicles open, allowing your hair to breathe and remain healthy and smooth.

8. Suppresses Arthritis

Arthritis directly affects the joints and causes severe irritation and immobility. Adding dragon fruit to your diet can help you fight these ailments. Dragon fruit’s benefits for people suffering from arthritis are so great that it’s commonly referred to as the “anti-inflammatory fruit.”

9. Avoiding Acne

This treatment is not just for teenagers. Rich in vitamin C, this fruit becomes a great topical ointment. Turn a slice of dragon fruit into a paste and apply it to your reddened areas on your face or skin, then rinse with water. For best results, use twice daily.

10. Soothe Sunburned Skin

By combining dragon fruit with cucumber juice and honey, you can create a compound much like aloe that can soothe burned skin. Abundant in vitamin B3, dragon fruit can moisturize sunburned skin and release heat from the affected area.

How Can You Make Dragon Fruit a Part of Your Daily Routine?

Tired of the everyday apple or banana? Go ahead, you get permission to pick up the exotic fruit because it’s so good it should be forbidden. Dragon fruit is so easy to eat that all you need is a spoon to dig out its goodness, similar to a kiwi. Or, you can easily bite it right off of the peel for a quick fix. One dragon fruit will suffice as a snack, but soon you’ll be craving more. Try some of these recipes that call for dragon fruit here.

Just remember, even though they look beautiful on your counter, they are much more than a simple decoration. Reap the benefits of dragon fruit!

Look at the “Purple version” of this amazing fruit!
