10 Healthy Herbs You Should Be Using

 

Tarragon: helps preserve a healthy blood flow

Tarragon dates back to ancient Greece, where it was used to alleviate toothaches. Chewing the leaves releases an oil called eugenol, which helps numb pain. Rich in vitamins A and C, as well as several important minerals, studies have shown that tarragon may prevent against the build up of platelets that form blood clots and reduce the risk for stroke.

Tarragon is excellent when paired with seafood, fruits, poultry, eggs, and most vegetables, and its intense flavor provides a hint of mild vanilla.
