PLEASING THE PALATE - MENDING THE MUSCLES - SATISFYING THE SOUL AND HELPING THE HEART

All the benefits about the spice called Cumin have been known from ancient times and used to flavour many foods, often added to soups and found it also benefits many ailments. It is used by cooks in present day kitchens as these health benefits become better known. Cumin is also present in most curry powders. Some cooks use it in place of cayenne but cumin is said by others to have a more mild smoky type of flavour.

As spring moves into summer an addition of cumin to gravies, and all colourful vegetables help protect the skin, hair, and eyes from the sun’s harmful rays. Add to that its benefits to the liver and other related disorders as it moves through the entire system right down through to the exit with all body systems showing improvements. It is good to take notes on these benefits that have been felt throughout the body.

Ginger is another ancient root and is espoused by Victor Marchione, M.D. who has done experiments in New Zealand that has shown that Ginger relives Arthrtis, cleanses the colon, reduces cramps and improves circulation. It creates warmth throughout the entire body that gives suppleness, creates flexible joints and mobility, and reduces the unwanted prescriptions that can cause side effects.

The heart, considered the most important muscle, is then able to call on all other body systems that have been kept healthy and ready with supplies that keep the blood stream flowing ceaselessly for its urgent needs. Habits like smoking and overuse of alcohol is detrimental to the health of all other body systems.
