RE: Going bonkers for conkers in Beveridge Park in Kirkcaldy Scotland
FINALLY! I CAN TELL SOMEONE ABOUT MY FUN HORSECHESTNUT FACT WITHOUT RANDOMLY DROPPING IT INTO CONVERSATION!
You aren't the only bonkers one.
Did you know that horse chestnut leaves contain saponins? So you can literally wash your hands with them - scrunch, add water, lather!
Leaves of the European chestnut tree contain ingredients with the power to disarm dangerous staph bacteria without boosting its drug resistance, scientists have found. - Source
YEAAAH baby!

Oh wow!
I checked the source and that is mental. The leaves are cool and now I know they are healthy so to speak too!
Thanks River that was fun to know!
I know right! I discovered it during COVID lockdown. There was a huge tree outside my sister in laws! Glad you liked this awesome fact - now you can share it too!
