Fresh turmeric from my garden✨
From an Ayurvedic perspective, turmeric is incredible for reducing inflammation, cleansing the blood and boosting the body’s natural immunity 💫try boiling a few slices with fresh ginger for a great immune boosting tea! Or grate a little into your morning digestive tonic 🙌Turmeric is one of the key spices I add to all my weekly delivery meals for its wide variety of medicinal benefits 🙏

✨Morning Detox Tea ✨
Starting your morning with this gentle detox tea is great for kick starting the digestive fire also known as “agni”. This morning drink will also be of great benefit if you suffer from sluggish or imbalanced digestion, as it helps to flush toxins from the body and support healthy elimination.
½ a teaspoon of fresh finely grated ginger
½ a teaspoon of lemon juice
½ a teaspoon of raw honey
glass of warm water
METHOD
Add ginger and lemon to your mug then add boiling water just over half full and give it a stir, now add room temperature water to the top and then add your honey. Alternatively add boiling water to the mix and let cool before adding your honey
Make sure not to add honey to water that is too hot as this changes the qualities turning it into a sticky toxic substance inside the body
GINGER acts as a scraper inside the body and is considered one of the best overall remedies in Ayurveda due to its diversity in treating many different ailments from joint inflammation to colds, coughs and digestive issues and even applied topically for aches and pains.
LEMON is packed with vitamins and minerals and acts as a flusher in the body by loosening ama (toxins) in the digestive tract
HONEY’S sweet nectar acts as a binder in the body and according to ancient Vedic civilisation is considered to be one of the most remarkable gifts to mankind due to its amazing healing properties.
Ayurvedic spices enhance digestion, boost our immunity and cleanse the body of Ama, ‘digestive toxins that have accumulated in the body.’ Try adding spices like turmeric, fresh ginger, cumin, coriander and fennel to your meals for great health benefits and a delicious flavour boost.
