Chickweed-A Wild Flower With Amazing Health Benefits

I finally found out the name of this little white wild flower in my yard. It is called CHICKWEED and they are packed with health benefits. The list of what chickweed can do as aid to your health truly amazing.

From what I have read so far, the leaf of chickweed can be use:

• To make tea
• Treat constipation 
• Help with stomach and bowel problems 
• Aid for blood disorders 
• Assist with asthma and other lung diseases 
• Control obesity 
• Vitamin C deficiency disease called scurvy, a skin condition called psoriasis, rabies, itching 
• Help with muscle and joint pain.

I have never tried this or heard of it before until lately. For some reasons if they are not available in a pill-form, then I kind of step back from trying. However, learning about a new herb is always refreshing.
