TAMARIND
Tamarind is a fruit. It is a long, bean-shaped fruit
that encloses a stringy pulp within its casing. It can be eaten or made into
a healing paste or salve in order to receive its multiple benefits.
“Tamarindus
indica has broad spectrum antibacterial activity and a potential source of
new classes of antibiotics that could be useful for infectious disease
chemotherapy and control.”
Of particular interest is that this fruit has the ability to
help detox fluoride from the body. The 'Natural Society' states that, "Tamarind
could
even help your body to detox fluoride, and subsequently helps to protect
against
skeletal fluorosis by
enhancing excretion of fluoride".
Skeletal fluorosis is
a bone disease
caused by excessive accumulation of fluoride in the bones. In advanced
cases, skeletal
fluorosis causes
painful damage to bones and joints.
The Natural
Society
says "Fluoride
is a serious health hazard across several nations, and chronic intake of
fluoride deranges the carbohydrate, lipid and antioxidant metabolism in
general. As there are limited remedial measures to prevent fluorosis, (the
Natural Society) investigated the role of tamarind leaf as a food supplement
in restoration of carbohydrate, lipid and antioxidant metabolism in
fluoride-exposed albino rats….....These findings are significant in view of
the need for cost-effective approaches to tackle fluorosis as an
environmental hazard and use of food supplements as ameliorative measures.”
*The report was that it was helpful in enabling the body to detox from
fluoride.
Tamarind helps the digestive
system, can help maintain healthy blood pressure, and help improve
kidney function
This fruit can help individuals
fight infections, and
can help you to sleep better at night.
Tamarind helps keep
the skin and hair vibrant and strong.
