Ajwain |
Ajwain is a common household remedy for gastrointestinal problems like indigestion, flatulence and colic pain. It is used as a spice and condiment in foods to add flavor, aroma and also for preservation. The carminative (anti-gas) and antimicrobial property of Ajwain are due to the presence of a chemical called Thymol in it. Thymol also helps release gastric juices in the stomach thereby enhancing the process of digestion[1][2].
Tip:
1. Take 1-2 glass of water in a pan.
2. Add 1 teaspoon of Ajwain seeds to it.
3. Bring it to a boil on low flame for 8-10 mins.
4. Take 2-3 teaspoon of this decoction 3-6 times a day.
