Use of Betel (Paan) leaves to cure piles .

Ever wondered why Betel leaves(paan in India) are so famous and an important part of Indian culture?  This is due to immensely beneficial properties of the leaves. 

We all are well aware of the fact that to enhance the immunity in our bodies we need to work on the intake of antioxidants. Well, betel leaves are a store house of antioxidants.Therefore they could be included in the diet in order to get enough immune power .

Another very efficient use of betel/paan leaves is to cure or relieve piles /hammaeroids. Keeping in mind the food habits of today's generation ,piles has become an increasingly prevelant disease.In order to get relief from piles one must chew as many betel leaves as possible in a day .The trick here is to reduce the grains' intake in the diet to a bare minimum and refrain from eating coarse things like nuts, tobacco , gutkha,pan masala etc.completely .These bad habits cause a big hinderance in the treatment of piles.

Happy recovering.
