I give this simple and effective practice to most of my clients as a good health measure for optimal digestion, elimination, glowing skin, stress management, and overall health.
1. Boosts the immune system
Lemons are high in Vitamin C and potassium. Vitamin C is great for fighting colds, and potassium stimulates the brain and nerve function and helps control blood pressure.
2. Balances pH in the body
As we near the daffodils springing up, it's the perfect time to introduce this popular and simple Ayurvedic herbal blend affectionately known as "CCF Tea". This tea is easy to make, and you might even have the ingredients in your spice cabinet.
1/2 tsp Coriander Seeds (V+PK-)
1/2 tsp Cumin Seeds (P+VK-)
1/2 tsp Fennel Seeds (VPK-)
This recipe is one of my favorite recipes for a fall and winter breakfast. It is great for a post-workout meal and will support sustaining your energy throughout the day. You can modify the ingredients and herbs to your palette or match it to your Doshic (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) or digestive needs.
