Plantain is a medicinal herb with a long history. Plantains contain mucilage, tannins, and iridoid glycosides, all of which are believed to give it antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and expectorant properties. Apart from having medicinal benefits, the leaves are nutritious too. They contain iron, calcium, potassium, and vitamins A, K, C, and B. Add a few young tender leaves to a fresh salad or cook them like you would a leafy green to benefit from this nourishing plant. Plantain, an ancient medicinal herb, contains mucilage, tannins, and iridoid glycosides. It’s known for its antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and expectorant properties. The leaves can help with conditions like cold, cough, bronchitis, skin irritations, ulcer, and wounds. The seeds – known as psyllium – ease constipation and help manage cholesterol and blood sugar. Psyllium needs to be consumed with sufficient water as it may otherwise cause blockages in the throat or bowel.
