It might sound silly as a goose, but she might be on to something.

Paragis, commonly known as goosegrass weed, offers a lot of health benefits. Nowadays, the lowly plant is dubbed as “God’s gift to mankind” because of its versatility in our medicine cabinets and, would you believe, the kitchen tables!

Yes, that weed you consider pesky in your graden could actually be eaten as salad, adding tender shoots and drizzling olive oil. Upon serving, you could actually say, “Eto! Kumain ka ng damo.”

But, what are the health benefits of drinking tea made from leaves, stems, and roots of goosegrass or Paragis? Well, here are few things it could reportedly cure.

Thanks to its antioxidants, drinking goosegrass tea lowers the risk of developing cancer cells in your body. Likewise, ovarian cysts reportedly decrease in size once you’ve developed the habit of drinking tea.

Since Paragis is a strong diuretic, it helps in alleviating kidney problems and a host of other urinary tract infections, like gallstones and bladder.

Who needs skin creams if you could make a poultice from Paragis to soothe skin problems like psoriasis and eczema? Patch it on arthritic joints or minor wounds, even sprains, to ease the pain.

There are conflicting reports if someone with diabetes can or should drink Paragis. But to be on the safe side, it’s better to consult first with your doctor since it could significantly affect your health. However, if you believe in the saying “Prevention is better than cure,” you might find it beneficial to drink Paragis tea for its reported bevy of benefits.
