How can lettuce help you sleep?

The relaxing and calming effect of lettuce is due to two organic compounds - lactucin and lactucopicrin. Psychiatrist and author of numerous books on sleep, Michael Breus, confirms that lactucin and lactucopicrin have a sedative and mild analgesic effect. He conducted a study of the properties of lettuce in a clinical setting. One study found that the combination of lettuce and skullcap (a herb often used to treat acne) helped prolong deep sleep.

Where was lettuce tea invented?

By the way, in South Korea, lettuce seed oil has long been used as a cure for insomnia in traditional medicine.

Где изобрели чай из салата?

Но изобрели чай из салата вовсе не тиктокеры. В мае 2017 года в журнале Food Science Biotechnology было опубликовано исследование о возможности применения салата латука в качестве снотворного.

К слову, в Южной Корее масло семян салата давно используется как лекарство от бессонницы в традиционной медицине.

Salad tea or salad water.

The first video with salad water was the video of tik-talker Shapla Hoque. She washed a few lettuce leaves under water, then crushed them and poured boiling water over them.

Fans of this recipe claim that after 10 minutes of such tea drinking, you want to quickly go to bed and fall asleep.

Digestion and assimilation are different processes.

For example, do you have enough enzymes to digest protein, BUT is it well absorbed by the intestines? The quality of absorption depends on the health of the intestinal mucosa. Therefore, we again come to the point that we need to deal with the health of the intestine, its microbiota.

What to do for good digestion of protein?

1. First of all, to establish the work of the digestive tract, no matter how trite it may sound. There should be sufficient acidity and good condition of the gastric mucosa, which produces enzymes. 2. Lean on fiber, as it contains the necessary enzymes for digestion. Try to eat plenty of vegetables and green salads along with protein. 3. Drink more water. Water is actively involved in the processes of digestion. BUT do not drink with food, as you can dilute the gastric juice and reduce acidity. You need to drink 30 minutes before meals or an hour and a half after. Based on approximately 30 ml per kg of weight. 4. The method of cooking meat or fish is also very important. If you are a fan of deep frying or deep frying, you will lose a lot more protein than if you just stew or bake the meat. Well, plus get a whole "bouquet" of carcinogens. Do you need it?

We protect teeth from caries.

1. Dentists advise resisting the temptation to rinse out your mouth after brushing your teeth, because otherwise the protective fluoride coating applied with toothpaste is washed off (unexpected, huh?!) 2.

Leela game. Continuation.

During the game (and the game can last 5-6 hours, and even more) there is a constant struggle between consciousness and soul. The mind throws at us not what we need. And with each new move, we gradually remove from ourselves the layers of that material and superfluous that until recently seemed very important to us, and expose our soul.
