COOL QUAIL FACTS

Believe it or not in some countries quail meat and eggs are believed to have special healing properties. Quail farming history received its start when a Japanese Emperor believed he was cured of his consumption (Tuberculosis) after eating a large quantity of quail meat.

In Romania many people believe that eating quail can improve your body in many ways. For instance they say that Quail meat improves the function of your heart, it can stabilize kidney and liver disease. Others in this country go on to say that the meat from quails can help your digestion to such an extent that it can heal ulcers!

Still other cultures consume large amounts of quail meat and eggs because they believe that the qualities of this food can improve and refresh the mind as well as hasten the growth of children and fortify weakened immune systems.

Perhaps one of the most interesting and versatile beliefs is that eating large amounts of quail eggs will not only improve your nerves, but it will also stimulate sexual potential.

Here is an example or two recipes for healing many afflictions from a Romanian source:

120 eggs cure

This cure is recommended for those who suffer of high blood pressure, ulcers and digestive disorders. In order to cure these afflictions eat the following amount of quail eggs for 25 days: 3 eggs in the first and the second day, 4 eggs in the third day, five eggs in the following days until the 25-th day.

240 eggs cure

If one wishes to be cured from any of the following diseases: arteriosclerosis, diabetes, asthma, pulmonary affections, anemia, migraines, neurasthenia, cholesterol, diseases of liver and kidneys, or for cleaning the complexion, fortifying the immune system and sexual potential, try the following: Consume 3 raw eggs the first day, four the second, and five on the remaining days for a total of 45 days.

For children between 4 and 8 years old, it is recommended 120 eggs cure in 31 days and a 240 eggs cure in 61 days, used in this way:

- 3 eggs in the first four days;
- 4 eggs in the following days;

Eggs can be consumed raw or after they have been mixed with sugar and lemon. They should be consumed in the morning 30 minutes before having breakfast.

For good results of the treatment it is recommended that one should abstain from consuming alcoholic drinks.

There are no side affects.

Remember that the previous information has much to do with folklore, there are no guarantees that any of them will work.
