Porulaca oleracea

The weed you never knew you could eat!

It used to be said that purslane would bring relief from dry coughs and shortness of breath.  If mixed with oil of roses, it should bring relief for swollen gums and loose teeth.  Prescribed as a tonic for blood disorders.

Often eaten fresh in a salad.  Tastes yummy– and is a common weed.

This is not medical advice.
