Medicinal uses of cucumber

Sliced cucumber (or cucumber) rubbed on cracked lips will help soften lips again. When you have abdominal distension or edema, take two old cucumbers and put them in a pot of vinegar water to boil and eat when hungry.

Cucumber appears daily in Vietnamese meals, but few people know about its therapeutic uses. Please share your "heirloom" experience of using cucumbers to "treat" the following diseases:

- When lips are chapped: Thinly slice a fresh cucumber (the more resin the better) and rub it on your lips several times to help soften your lips. In addition, applying cucumber slices on the skin helps to reduce wrinkles, less rough skin and freckles.

- Throat swelling and pain: Take a really old cucumber, remove the seeds, stuff 10 to 20 grams of pepper (bought at Northern pharmacy) into the melon's intestines. Bring the stuffed melon to dry in the cool, then cut into slices. Note that pregnant women who want to apply this treatment need to consult a doctor.

- Reduce heat, treat diarrhea: Young cucumbers cooked with a little sugar to drink.

- Stomach distention, edema: Take an old cucumber, remove the seeds, add a little vinegar and water to the saucepan. This dish is eaten when hungry. Note that people with stomach diseases should not eat cucumbers on an empty stomach.

- Redness of the skin: Chopped or grated cucumber to apply the juice to the skin rash.
