There are innumerable benefits that nature offers us for our well-being and that we should know, but not abuse its use.
Next I present in this first part the benefits of some natural products and they are the following ones:
The Eucalyptus
Eucalyptus offers us a great amount of benefits for our health.
The use of eucalyptus as a medicinal plant is recommended for those diseases that affect the respiratory tract such as influenza, asthma or colds.
The medicinal applications of this tree are used, especially its leaves, for having three important properties: anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and expectorant.
In the case of anti-inflammatory, by reducing inflammation, it facilitates breathing.
With respect to its antimicrobial capacity, with its use it is possible to put an end to those microorganisms -mainly microbes and bacteria- that cause infectious processes in the respiratory tract such as bronchitis, sinusitis, tracheitis and constipation.
Finally, its expectorant properties come from the leaves of eucalyptus. They are very odorous and rich in an essential oil whose main component is eucalyptol. This component is a powerful mucolytic that fluidizes the pulmonary secretions and favors their expulsion.

Echinacea is a beautiful looking plant, similar to daisies, is known as conical flower and consists of long ligules and floral discs that may sometimes contain thorns.
Echinacea is rich in fibre, vitamins C and B and beta-carotene, as well as minerals such as iron, sodium, magnesium and calcium. Nowadays there are many natural products that we can find elaborated with echinacea, since this plant can be used almost in its totality, since for these remedies they are used from the root to the flowers, happening through the stems, the leaves and its seeds.

The eggs we usually eat are chicken eggs, but they could also be pava, pata, quail or ostrich eggs.
The Green coffee
Green coffee beans are coffee beans that have not yet been roasted. Roasting coffee beans reduces the amount of the chemical, chlorogenic acid. Therefore, green coffee beans have a higher level of chlorogenic acid compared to roasted coffee beans. The chlorogenic acid in green coffee has health benefits.
People consume green coffee to treat obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, Alzheimer's disease and bacterial infections.
Green coffee contains caffeine. There is much less caffeine in green tea than in regular coffee. But green coffee can also cause caffeine-related side effects, similar to coffee.
Caffeine can cause insomnia, nervousness and restlessness, upset stomach, nausea and vomiting, increased heart rate and respiratory and other side effects. Drinking large amounts of coffee can also cause headache, anxiety, agitation, ringing in the ears, and irregular heartbeat.
It can be consumed in capsules (the so-called "green coffee extracts"), liquid, cream and, of course, in beans of the same fruit to the natural, grinding them and preparing an infusion with them.
The orange
The orange is the fruit of the sweet edible orange very abundant in vitamin C, flavonoids and essential oils. The fruits have the particularity that its pulp is formed by numerous vesicles full of juice.
Its nutritional composition, highlights its low energy value, thanks to its high water content and its wealth of vitamin C, folic acid and minerals such as potassium, magnesium and calcium.
The latter is barely absorbed by the body. It contains appreciable quantities of beta-carotene, responsible for its typical colour and known for its antioxidant properties; in addition to malic, oxalic, tartaric and citric acids, the latter enhances the action of vitamin C.
The amount of fiber is appreciable and it is found mainly in the white part between the pulp and the rind, so its consumption favors intestinal transit.
Vitamin C is involved in the formation of collagen, bones and teeth, red blood cells and promotes the absorption of iron from food and resistance to infection. The provitamin A or beta carotene is transformed into vitamin A in our body as it needs it. This vitamin is essential for vision, good condition of the skin, hair, mucous membranes, bones and for the proper functioning of the immune system.

Another advantage of this fruit is that it can be consumed raw, either with salad, vegetables or even alone, making it easier to adapt to the routine diet.
