Jeera Water

Wanna be healthy as well as beautiful ? Jeera water is the simplest solution ! Jeera adds minerals and vitamins to your water. Iron-rich jeera takes care of your immune system, digestive system, respiratory system, skin, hair & more.

In Kerala, people take cumin seeds water in place of normal water in their daily life. I have observed that keralites are more health conscious and they do complement their health via their food dailies. They eat natural nutrition-packed food like brown rice, more varieties of fish, Nendhran banana, fresh coconut, peanuts, this cumin water & the list expands !

Cumin seeds are trusted for milk production in feeding moms. This drink aids digestion and helps relieve bloating and gas. This drink is combined with Fenugreek drink for pregnant ladies and lactating moms. I had both Jeera and Fenugreek water from my 8th month of pregnancy till Nilaa turned 2 years. Moms-to-be too can opt for this to meet their iron demands.

Preparation

1.In the night, bring water to a rolling boil. Switch off the stove and add cumin seeds. Keep it closed overnight. Next day morning, filter the water and discard the seeds. Consume this water in place of normal water.

Tips/Tricks

• If you don’t like the strong flavour of jeera, you could reduce to 1/2 tbsp
• If you forgot to prepare it in the night, just toss some cumin seeds in your water bottle and in just half an hour, instant cumin water is ready. You shall sip it now and then, and finally rinse out the seeds settled in the bottom !
