These properties of parsley to regulate the blood pressure and boost the urine flow at the same time are also confirmed by another 2009 study, “Diuretic and hypotensive activity of aqueous extract of parsley seeds”, conducted in Brazilian.
Furthermore, according to one of the most experienced herbalists in the US, Dr. John R. Christopher, a person should consume two quarts (64oz.) of raw parsley or parsley tea on a daily basis, to successfully treat edema.
For optimal results, you should consume the entire parsley, organic and raw, together with the seeds, roots, and leaves, which have amazing healing effects.
Here is how to prepare this tea:
Initially, boil 500ml of water in a pot. Then, chop the fresh parsley roots and leaves finely, and mix them. Add 5 tablespoons of this mixture in the pot and boil them for 5 minutes.
Afterward, leave the tea aside for 20 minutes to cool down, and then strain it.
Use:
Drink the parsley tea three times a day, and it will quickly solve the issue, as the swellings of the legs will disappear in a couple of days.
