THE CAROB TREE
The carob tree, Ceratonia siliqua, produces dark brown pea pod-like fruit that contains pulp and seeds. Carob is a tasty and healthful chocolate replacement. It has been used for health purposes for over 4,000 years, dating back to ancient Greece.
According to the “Encyclopedia of Healing Foods,” carob pods were offered to vocalists by 19th-century British chemists. Carob pods were chewed by singers to keep their vocal cords healthy and to calm and cleanse their throats.
Carob is available to buy as:
- Powder
- Chips
- Syrup
- Extract
- Dietary pills
It’s pods are edible whether they are fresh or dried. People who incorporate carob into their diet report weight loss and fewer stomach troubles. The anti-inflammatory and antioxidant qualities of carob’s active ingredients, such as polyphenols, tannins, dietary fiber, and sugars, have been found to be notably useful to the gastrointestinal tract and digestive system.
