can we eat reetha - #25757
I am really curious about this whole reetha thing! A few weeks ago, I was browsing through some herbal remedies and came across reetha. I remember my grandma used to say its great for cleaning hair and it’s natural, which is a plus, right? But now I'm kinda wondering, can we eat reetha too? I’ve read that it can help with skin and hair, but it says something about it being toxic if consumed improperly? Last week, I tried a shampoo made with reetha, and my hair felt super clean, almost like squeaky clean! But again, I'm unsure what happens if I actually eat it. Like, does it have any health benefits if we eat reetha, or is it like, a no-go? Anyone had experience with eating it or using it in cooking? I’ve even seen recipes with it, but I can’t help but feel a bit hesitant. Can we eat reetha safely or talk more about the proper way to consume it? Also, is there a difference between using it and eating it? Would love some insights!
