Benefits of petroselinum
Fights rage in the arena. Gladiators fight like lions, and the crowd applauds their courage and strength. But did you know that behind their physicality, besides training, was parsley? In ancient Rome, it was a powerful source of energy and vitality. So remember that when you are chopping it into soup.
Few herbs contain almost an entire pharmacy in such tiny leaves. In addition to the vitamins A, B, C and K, you will also find many minerals in it - iron, zinc, manganese, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium and many more. Despite all the positive aspects of parsley, this plant does not have a good reputation in terms of legends. It is called "the devil's herb", and planting it on Good Friday brings bad luck. Also, the seeds, which germinate relatively late compared to others, are said to make several trips to hell and back first. Ancient Greek legends were not too flattering either - they dedicated parsley to Persephone, Queen of the underworld, and warned soldiers that contact with this herb before battle meant almost certain death. Fortunately (over time), the name of parsley has been sufficiently purified, and it is now considered one of the best herbs.
You would find the sun-loving plant's origins in southern Europe around the Mediterranean, but today, it thrives almost everywhere, including tropical areas. We commonly use the fresh leaves as a spice with a specific flavour, but it is also delicious dried in herbal mixtures. Its consumption is not significantly restricted.
