MORE ON JERUSALEM ARTICHOKE
- by Alison Cullen Author of
Herbs for Healthy Living
Helianthus
Also known as:
Jerusalem Artichoke.
Uses:
Weight control, appetite control, Syndrome X (blood sugar imbalances).
Description:
Despite its name, Jerusalem Artichoke is neither an artichoke nor from
Jerusalem
. It is native to
North America
and is a member of the sunflower family, sharing their ability to swivel around to follow the path of the sun. It is possible that it acquired the name
Jerusalem
as a distortion of its Italian name Girasola, which means ‘rotate towards the sun’.
How it works:
Jerusalem Artichoke slows down the rate at which sugars are broken down in the body. This means that your food will give you energy for a longer period of time, slowing down hunger pangs. Better metabolism of sugars also balances out swings in blood sugar levels, reducing sugar cravings that come when blood sugar levels drop.
Jerusalem Artichoke contains plant sugars that feed friendly bacteria in the gut, and these bacteria break down undigested food particles and prevent them from putrefying and causing embarrassing wind. As Jerusalem Artichoke also contains water soluble plant fibres, it helps to bulk up waste matters travelling through the colon and thus improves bowel regularity.
Additional advice:
No restrictions on use are known.
