A famous ancient Persian physician Avicenna said that the strongest attributes of a radish are its seeds then the bark leaves and finally the flesh. In most of the cases, it is recommended to squeeze the entire radish for its juice. However, this is advisable only if the vegetable has been grown in an organic environment without using chemical fertilizers. Mostly radishes as well as other vegetables purchased in supermarkets still need thorough cleaning in order to remove the harmful substances. Black radishes must be given a good wash by exfoliating and peeling the skin (If in doubt about the vegetable cultivation and storage conditions).
