Posted on August 5, 2010 by marvin
According to Department of Agriculture, saluyot or jute has the following anti-aging benefits. I’m sure you’re gonna like its benefits. It’s better than any age defying cream.
Jute leaves contain almost all of the nutrients needed by humans. But, the most important benefit is their high antioxidant property, primarily in the form of VitaminE. These antioxidants combine with free radicals that cause problems like arthritis, hardening of arteries, heart and kidney ailments.
Among the many benefits, saluyot contains:
• Vitamin A, which aids in repairing the body’s cells and improves eyesight.
• Vitamin C or ascorbic acid, which improves blood circulation and helps lower the risk of cataracts and other eye disorders
• Vitamin E, which slows down the aches and pains associated with aging, holds infertility at bay and increases stamina
• A high percentage of calcium, which contributes to strong teeth and bones.
