Hey guys. If you are looking for a food that is not a medicine for hypertensive people. .
. And still with high cholesterol. How to lower cholesterol while still having high blood pressure?
Without taking simvastatin, people say that all statins block the production of coenzyme Q10. Then you decrease muscle strength and start to have joints. .
. You have back pain. So, there is a food that is cheap, it is common.
. . It costs less than one real, and does the same function.
So, this video was made for you. Well, what is this food? It's the eggplant.
Aubergine. Eggplant is such a simple thing, so simple, such a simple food. .
. I'm going to highlight its 9 properties, I'm going to show you. .
. The reasons why you have to consume eggplant. The first one, it has very low calories.
20 calories per 100g. So almost nothing. It has almost no calories.
So you can eat as much as you like fiber. There are two ways you can consume this. It can be braised, or juice.
What I researched most was eggplant juice. You cut it in half, add 400ml or 300ml of orange juice . .
. Or lemon juice. Beats together.
Because it doesn't have juice, it's half fiber. It's stringy. So, you hit it with orange juice or lemon juice.
. . And you consume it.
In fact, there is the third one, which is eggplant flour. You have to buy it at the supermarket, somewhere. .
. There always is, it's cheap. It's made from flour.
You can also make the flour at home. . .
Dr it, toast it in the oven, dry it in the oven. . .
And make the eggplant flour. So, first thing, if you want to lose weight, it has no calories, it has a lot of fiber. This is the first.
The second one I researched the most is lowering bad cholesterol. I'm going to put the link under a Brazilian survey, carried out in Paraíba. The title tells whether it's a myth or truth that eggplant lowers cholesterol.
Because popularly people say that it loses weight, lowers cholesterol and also reduces diabetes. Is it true? So the first issue was cholesterol.
So within that survey there are several surveys that they reported. I reinforced one, it was researched with 20 people. They accompanied 20 people for 222 days.
Drnking a juice a day from this eggplant. Drnking orange juice with eggplant. These people had 30% lower cholesterol overall.
You're welcome. It's enough, isn't it? If you had 30% of 300.
. . Turned what?
Almost returned to normal. So when you decrease 30% of what you had. .
. Almost 300. .
. You can reduce it. Still it doesn't change the HDL.
So when you look at the LDL ratio, the total minus HDL. . .
That's 43% LDL reduction. And they stopped in 6 months because people got back to normal. There's another video where I indicated the artichoke.
But the artichoke increases the production of bile. It messes with the liver, it lowers the fat in the liver, but it's more for the liver. Eggplant doesn't change anything.
It's a food that doesn't change your liver, it itself has antioxidants, it has enzymes that reduce these cholesterol levels. So, this has been proven, it's true, ok? The third point is that it decreases liver fat.
As it lowers cholesterol, the enzymes themselves can lower liver fat. So, in these 7 months, you can change the condition of hepatic steatosis. When the liver cannot lower cholesterol, it starts to protect itself.
Then you start accumulating fat in your liver itself. He is also a consequence of that. The fourth, it has antioxidants.
It has several enzymes that protect the heart, protect the arteries, which are extremely antioxidants. It is noteworthy that you need to eat with the skin. OK?
It doesn't take off the husk. The research was always done with bark. OK?
This shell is important. If you're afraid of dirt or pesticides, you can soak it with baking soda. There are people who: "Can I leave it in the bleach in small concentration?
" It can also sterilize chlorine. But, it does not remove pesticides. What takes away pesticides is sodium bicarbonate.
A spoon of baking soda, put a liter of water. . .
10, 20 minutes to take it out. Then you can scrub it with a sponge. The important thing is to use the shell, ok?
Fifth, he is a diuretic. The research was done with hypertensive people. It lowers blood pressure.
And it improves inflammation or infections of the kidneys and bladder. So, for people who have kidney and bladder problems, it can also help in this regard. What is the sixth?
The sixth is calming. The soothing eggplant juice has a hypnotic effect. It's not that sleepiness, it's for you to be calmer.
So, this type of tranquilizer is for you to induce sleep. It's not that heavy sleep. That you can't wake up the other day, no.
This is more of an induction, a tranquilizer to take the anxiety away. Those who are on a weight-loss program and want to reduce calories. .
. You can make that eggplant flour together with manioc flour, with tapioca. .
. Or even with whole grain flour, to reduce the amount of carbohydrate intake. .
. It would be very good to replace in this sense. Or you just make it braised.
Use this to increase satiety. And yet it soothes, lessens this anxiety to eat. The seventh is intestine.
So, as it is fibrous, it is antiseptic, anti-inflammatory. . .
It treats from the esophagus, to the stomach and intestine. It deflates the entire digestive tract. The eighth, treats arthritis and arthrosis.
This is very curious too. So it's anti-inflammatory. We always talked about pineapple.
Eventually you can make eggplant, pineapple, ginger, turmeric. There are 4 anti-inflammatory drugs, so imagine. .
. Besides it has calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, zinc, iron. .
. And potassium. And it helps to deflate your knee, your joints.
The last, the ninth, what does Chinese medicine say about eggplant? Chinese medicine thinks that eggplant is a fruit, it is a yin food. It reduces heat.
So, whoever has fire in the liver, fire in the heart, anxiety, palpitation. . .
Whoever has a strong desire to eat. . .
Food compulsion. . .
It's all a sign of yang. She's yin so she improves the heat a lot. It lowers this energy, especially in the summer, ok?
So, this is all simple, it costs less than 1 dollar. You can consume it every day, until you get a good result. If you liked this video, share it with your friends.
