Jeera or Cumin is a millennium-old spice that leaves an unparalleled, unique taste in your mouth. A sprinkle or two provides a worthy flavor into any dish, leaving its unique combination of aromatic essence heat inside.
Nutritionist Avni Kaul says Jeera has an amazingly revitalizing rusty taste that goes straight through your body. In mainstream science, jeera is said to contain thymol, a chemical that stimulates the pancreas to produce enzymes and bile. This ability improves the overall digestion of carbohydrates and fats within the body. And when added with water it becomes wonderful.
And top it off, only a whiff of jeera contains Cuminaldehyde. This chemical, when only sniffed, rouses the digestive enzymes in your body and triggers the salivation impulse. Just sniffing jeera readies your body for a satisfying round of delicious food.
In this article, Nutritionist, Dietician, and Founder of Nutri Activania, Avni Kaul talks about the benefits of Jeera water on your health.
Jeera Water Is Good For Digestion
One of the popular well-known Jeera water uses. This powerful anti-gas chemical within protects the body against irritable bowel disease and resolves flatulence, belching and burps in a short time. It must be first on your list if looking for a simple, fast remedy for your stomach woes.
It Is Anti-Inflammatory
The thymoquinone present within the Jeera is protective of the liver. This one chemical is so powerful that has researchers rushing to successfully extract the compound within and market it through capsules to improve digestion.
Jeera water has the compound in a secure, simple, easy to prepare the way that is all-natural and features no mysterious or unknown side effects.
It Is Anti-Cancer
Jeera is medically proven to stop free radicals from causing damage with its powerful scavenging abilities. It improves the liver’s natural detoxification passages and helps in overall detoxification and rejuvenation. Health starts in the gut, and Jeera contains compounds that support liver health and stimulate digestive enzymes. It supports your body to acquire more nutrition from food so it can function naturally to detox and heal you better.
Improves Insulin Sensitivity
With continuous blood sugar spikes, your blood sugar goes too high and nosedives repeatedly and tires out your insulin-producing pancreas. Jeera makes your body more sensitive to insulin and lowers your blood sugar levels in the long run. Care must be taken not to ignore a good diet and proper physical activity in addition to having jeera water.
It Is A Good Hydrator
Have some honey and freshly squeezed lemon added with a pinch of salt into your Jeera water to make your cells hydrated and fresh. Supplying water and electrolytes for your body keeps them working at top condition, and a Jeera drink is a good way to accomplish that. Drinking Jeera water in the mornings before your workout will prevent nausea and dizziness you experience if you are in a habit of skipping breakfast.
Jeera water is a safe method of improving general wellness. However, there are some side effects that may happen. In that scenario, you need to talk to your doctor.
