Poppy
seed from the herbal plant Papaver somniferum was already known in ancient
times. The Egyptians used it as a sedative for its opium content and the
Sumerians cultivated it to promote sleep, fertility and wealth. Poppy seeds are
characterized by several health benefits.
According to naturalnews.com and sk.wikipedia, seven main effects are attributed to poppy seeds: 1 - its calcium content is 12x higher than that in cows' milk which is suitable for preventing osteoporosis, 2 - a great source of oleic acid reduces cholesterol and protects the heart, 3 - some studies have shown the anti-cancer effect of oleic acid in poppy seeds, 4 - carbohydrate content in the poppy is the source of energy and helps to absorb calcium, 5 - the poppy fiber aids digestion, 6 - iron in poppy supports the immune system and circulation of oxygen, 7 - contains potassium, which protects against the formation of kidney stones.

Poppy seeds are utilized
a lot in Eastern and Central European cuisine. One of the dishes is gnocchi
sprinkled with ground poppy seeds, sugar and melted butter. As an alternative in
this popular recipe, I have replaced butter containing cholesterol with the
grape seed oil that was healthier without cholesterol and maybe even tastier.
Mak poznali už
v staroveku, pre jeho obsah ópia Egypťania ho používali ako sedatívum a Sumeri ho pestovali na podporu
spánku, plodnosti a bohatstva. Mak má niekoľko liečiacich schopností
o ktorých nie všetci sú informovaní. Podľa naturalnews.com a sk.wikipédie je dôležité poznať 7
blahodarných účinkov, ktoré sa pripisujú maku: 1 - pre svoj obsah vápnika ktorý
je 12x vyšší než v kravskom mlieku je vhodný pre prevenciu osteoporózy, 2
- obsahuje kyselinu olejovú ktorá znižuje cholesterol a chráni srdce, 3 -
niektoré štúdie poukázali na protirakovinový účinok kyseliny olejovej
v maku, 4 - obsah karbohydrátov v maku je zdrojom energie
a pomáha absorbovať vápnik, 5 - vláknina v maku podporuje trávenie, 6
- železo v maku podporuje imunitný systém a obeh kyslíka, 7 - obsahuje
draslík ktorý chráni proti tvorbe obličkových kameňov.
Mak sa hodne používa vo východoeurópskej a stredoeurópskej
kuchyni. Jedno z jedál sú makové šúľance posypané makom, cukrom a zaliate
roztopeným maslom. Ja som v tomto obľúbenom recepte nahradila maslo jemným
hroznovým olejom čo bolo zdravšie a možno aj chutnejšie.
