This is the first leg in my journey of fascination, travelling
through the healing properties of spices.
Let’s start with the common spices most of us already have in our
kitchen and use regularly, without really understanding what they offer in flavour
to our foods or, more importantly, in health benefit.
I am NOT suggesting spices are a replacement for following official medical advice. Prescription medication from a medical doctor or a Naturopath remedy is often very effective with ailments, but not always. As someone who experiences daily pain from injuries and joint problems, I shy away from making pain killers a daily habit and strive to learn about the natural pain relieving spices and those that offer an anti-inflammatory effect.
Perhaps the following chart will benefit you as much as I hope it eases my own physical ailments.
If you have great recipe ideas using any of these spices,
please comment and share!

ReplyDeleteA Chai recipe to Make 2 cups:
Put 1 1/2cup water in pot & grate fresh ginger into it...use lots as it tastes DELISH :) . Next add a 1/2 stick of cinnamon in water & bring water to boil. Add black tea leaves& boil, next add 1 cup milk and bring to boil. Take off stove and strain tea into cup. Add sugar as per taste. I like my tea a little spicy so on cold days I also add 1 or 2 cloves when boiling the tea.
Enjoy! :)
