Rau om (also known as rau ngổ, ngổ hương, ngổ điếc) has the scientific name Limnophila aromatica. In traditional medicine, rau om possesses a spicy, astringent taste, cool properties, strong fragrance, attributed to the spleen, stomach and bladder meridians. This vegetable has the effect of clearing heat, detoxifying, relieving swelling, reducing pain, anti-inflammatory and relaxing smooth muscles.
According to modern medical studies, om vegetables contain large amounts of essential oils (mainly limonene, perillaldehyde), flavonoids, saponins, along with vitamins A, B, C and minerals. These active ingredients help fight bacteria, fight oxidation and reduce smooth muscle contractions effectively.
The combination of braised vegetables and coconut water creates a highly mutually supportive remedy. Coconut water acts as a natural guide, helping to soothe the pungent and astringent taste of braised vegetables, while doubling the diuretic properties and cleaning the excretory system.
Supports erosion and excretion of kidney stones, urinary tract stones
This is considered the most important answer to the question of what the effect of drinking braised vegetables with coconut water is.
Stretching the smooth muscles of the urethra: Essential oils and flavonoids in braised vegetables have the ability to relax the smooth muscles of the ureter. This helps reduce kidney spasms and expand the diameter of the ureter.
Diuretic and erosion of stones: Potassium-rich coconut water combined with the diuretic properties of om vegetables increases urine flow. This strong flow effect helps push small stones, oxalate residue or uric crystals out of the bladder and kidneys naturally.
Reduce symptoms of urinary tract infection, painful urination, frequent urination
Braised vegetables contain natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory compounds that help inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria in the urinary tract. When used with coconut water, this drink soothes the irritated bladder mucosa, quickly reducing burning sensation, frequent urination, cloudy urine or burning pain when going to the toilet.
Heat-clearing, liver detoxification and body cooling
On hot sunny days or when the body accumulates many toxins due to diet, combining braised vegetables and coconut water helps cool the blood, supporting the liver's detoxification function. This drink helps reduce boils, heat rash and itching due to heat in the body.
What are the effects of processing the remedy of drinking braised vegetables with coconut water at home?
First, prepare about 50 - 100g of fresh braised vegetables, cut off the dark roots and then wash them several times under running water to completely remove mud. Because braised vegetables usually live in aquatic mud areas, the next extremely important step is to soak the vegetables in diluted salt water for 15 - 20 minutes to completely kill bacteria, parasites and worm eggs.
After taking out the vegetables and rinsing them with clean water and draining, put the braised vegetables in a mortar and crush them or grind them finely with about 150 - 200ml of fresh and cool coconut water. Finally, you just need to use a strainer or clean bucket cloth to squeeze thoroughly to remove the pulp, squeeze out the light green mixture juice to drink directly during the day to retain all the precious essential oils.
Only use once a day in the morning. A course of use should only last from 5 to 7 days, then stop for at least 1-2 weeks to monitor the body's reaction. Absolutely do not abuse drinking instead of filtered water every day.
