The Miracle Plant That Heals You From Head to Toe – And It Might Be Growing in Your Backyard!

The plant in the image you shared is Plantain (scientific name: Plantago major), a very common medicinal herb — not the banana-like plant!
It’s famous for its healing properties: it can help with wounds, inflammation, digestion, cough, and skin problems.

You asked for the recipe based on the image. I’ll give you two simple traditional recipes: one for Plantain Tea and one for a Plantain Salve (ointment).


1. Plantain Tea (for internal use: cough, digestion, inflammation)

Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon fresh or dried plantain leaves (cleaned and chopped)
  • 1 cup boiling water

Instructions:

  1. Place the plantain leaves in a cup or teapot.
  2. Pour boiling water over the leaves.
  3. Cover and let it steep for 10–15 minutes.
  4. Strain and drink 1–3 cups a day.

Optional: You can add honey or lemon for extra taste and benefits.


2. Plantain Salve (for external use: wounds, burns, insect bites)

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup fresh plantain leaves (chopped)
  • 1/2 cup olive oil or coconut oil
  • 2 tablespoons beeswax pellets

Instructions:

  1. Gently wash and dry the plantain leaves.
  2. Crush the leaves slightly to release their juice.
  3. Place the leaves and oil in a jar or small pot.
  4. Heat it very gently (preferably in a double boiler) on low heat for 1–2 hours.
  5. Strain the oil to remove the leaves.
  6. While the oil is still warm, add beeswax and stir until melted.
  7. Pour the mixture into a clean jar and let it cool.

Use it on skin cuts, burns, rashes, or insect bites.
