Taste of Mexico: Nobalas

Amigos, you provide Mexico and listen to the taste. Abarigra asked us to do a series about vegetarian food at Instagram, MexicoSo today we will talk about the plant that helped to design this nation: Nobal.

Did the Nobals really designed a nation?

Have you ever seen our national symbol? This is a reminder of the establishment of the Aztec civilization. According to the legend (although now very distorted and exaggerated), Mexica was looking for a place to settle. Leaded by the God of the Sun and the War, Hutezlopocadley, they found their kingdom, where an eagle was swallowing a snake on top of a Nobel aloe vera. They “invented” this identity in the middle of the Texcoco Lake.

As for Mexica, the Nobel aloe was considered a holy tree that combined three parts: its roots are attached to the underworld, aloe pads refer to the presence of the earth, and Tunas.

The mainstay of crisis is the main

Nobal’s symbolic importance is not a coincidence. The plant grows throughout the country and thrives in severe conditions, which is a symbol of the setback. It has been consumed for over 20,000 years and has been raised for nearly 9,000 years and serves as food, drink and medicine.

Nobal plays an important role in maintaining a balanced diet if fiber, vitamins A and C, minerals and antioxidants are combined with other ingredients. Also, it can be consumed in various forms.

There are 200 types of Nobal, 93 people in Mexico, and 62 are spreading. The most popular type of Milpa Alta.

Nobel

Mexica Warriors ate Nobel with blood to gain strength before important wars. Every 52 years, during the new fire ceremony, dry Nobal was burned to prevent the end of the universe.

The mucus, which is known as “mud”, is used for pain relief in mucus, burns and wounds. Tonas act as electrolytes and provide a natural alternative to the pepto bismol. Nobal flowers as tea can help control blood pressure. If you have diabetes, Nobals are your best ally because they help control sugar levels in the bloodstream.

Nobal in everyday life

Nobal aloe mucilage is important in the construction of houses because Adobe bricks have helped each other to adhere to each other. In addition, it played a role in purification of water in the canals and adjusting the pigments on the textile and walls.

Also, the Nobal cochinal acted as a habitat for the insect, which created a unique red dye. This dye is very valuable, which is used in artwork of famous painters such as Remband and Van Coc.

ThornyThe Superfoot

Amigos, which truly refers to the flavor of Mexico. On average, each Mexican uses about 6.4 kg of Nobel per year. We enjoy it in a variety of dishes, with salads, tacos, soups, pickles, grilled, juices, and bombs with silis. Recently, there are some amazing inventions: you can now find diabetes Nobeline snacks, ice creams, tartilas and Nobel supplements.

Every 100 grams of Nobal has just 16 calories, which is an attractive option for those who want to lose weight. Significantly, 60% of its weight is pure fiber. Its mucus acts as a prebiotic, which helps improve bowel health. If you have trouble sleeping, you will be happy to know that Nobal magnesium, calcium, potassium, vitamin C, vitamin A and antioxidants provide the wealth.

How to add this to my diet?

There are many ways to enjoy it! The most common is one side of a bomb. However, another easiest way to use this is to replace the foods made with tartilas or corn masa, ie Dilocoos, Chops or Cortidas.
