Have you ever wondered why our forefathers had strong immunity and were naturally healthier?
One of the biggest reasons is that they used herbs and spices to heal their ailing bodies. Herbs and spices have been used for centuries to treat different health issues.

When it comes to your digestive system, this tea is a game-changer. A combination of three traditional culinary spices—cumin, coriander, and fennel—this tea aids in the absorption of nutrients and stimulates the lymphatic system.

Let’s look at the merits of each of these herbs to further understand the magic of this tea.

Benefits of Cumin

• Stimulates Agni (digestive fire)
• Decreases gas
• Helps with indigestion
• Flushes out ama (toxic waste)
• Relieves congestion

• Contains antioxidants and iron
• Soothes inflamed mucous membranes
• Improves elimination

According to Ayurveda, cumin is pacifying to both Vata dosha (air and ether qualities) and Kapha dosha (water and earth). Due to its slightly heating nature, pittas (fire and water)

may find that, in excess, cumin will increase the fire element. However, the coriander and fennel work to balance the heat.

Benefits of Coriander

• Improves digestion
• Relieves gas
• Helps with many pitta disorders, especially urinary or digestive
• Increases digestion

and absorption
• Treats intestinal disorders
• Aids indigestion
• Calms muscle spasms
• Reduces inflammation—even shown to help with rheumatoid arthritis

Benefits of Fennel

• One of the best herbs for strengthening Agni without aggravating pitta
• Stops cramping

• Increases mental alertness
• Promotes breast milk flow
• Helps with IBS
• Relaxes the digestive tract
• Alleviates gas and indigestion
• Increases the burning of fat
• Moves lymph.

This tea should be consumed hot. Cold creates constriction, while heat opens up the blood

vessels. The ultimate goal is to increase blood circulation in the digestive system so that everything is working at full capacity.•
