Various diets and treatments - food rich in vitamins and minerals VARIOUS DIETS AND TREATMENTS - FOOD RICH IN VITAMINS AND MINERALS
The fact that 'spring fever' is partly a result of a deficiency in vitamins and important minerals should impel us to include in our diet plenty of early spring and wild salad greens and fresh vegetables. Then there are certain flowers and leaves that make superb herbal teas. For example, the bright yellow flowers of coltsfoot are a means of eliminating any phlegm and catarrh that may still linger on after the winter has passed. An infusion of various new leaf shoots is a rich source of minerals; as soon as the raspberry plants, blackberry branches and blackthorn and hawthorn bushes put forth tender new shoots, busy yourself with gathering them to prepare a wonderful spring tea from these fresh leaves. Do the same with young strawberry leaves and the tender shoots of the birch tree. Not only does such an infusion supply you with certain nutritive salts, but it also stimulates the kidneys to function more efficiently - an important aspect of any spring-cleaning treatment.
When the stinging nettles have grown large enough, gather some young shoots every day and add them, finely chopped, to your salads. They are delicious when lightly steamed as a vegetable, tasting something like spinach - which, incidentally, can also be used - or make them into a salad if you prefer. A little finely chopped bear's garlic (ramsons) will enrich any salad and a number of people enjoy bear's garlic leaves lightly steamed as a vegetable.
