roselaa flower


18th FEB 09: ROSELLA FLOWERIf you have low platelets, anemic or a weak body, you need to eat foods which are red in color. Foods which are dark red in color have high iron content and good in producing blood cells. Rosella can be obtained from markets and very suitable to be made as cordial drinks. Break the petals and remove the seeds. Boil the petals with brown or white sugar to a thick consistency. Serve this drink to your children when they are thirsty. Do not throw the seeds away. Dry the seeds and when the seed pods begin to mature it will start to shed it seeds (seedlings). Plant these seedlings if you want to cultivate a rosella plant. You can also use the tender leaves of rosella for cooking.
