Easy home remedy to detox yourself
Nature has given us all the means to keep ourselves healthy, unfortunately, we go for medicine that gives us quick relief. The important aspect of natural medicine is that they persist - that means the impact will stay for long term - consuming medicine is going to provide short term relief only. If you have not seen the theme of this month of the The Herbal Hive community, I recommend you look at this post and share your detox secret so that it can help other hivers. I am going to share couple of detox practice that I follow, the first one being the most simple that pretty much any one can follow.
Do you know the health benefits of Cumin seeds ? It has pretty much all kinds of health benefits - it contains apigenin and luteolin that work as antioxidants, it helps lower cholesterol, aids in weight loss, boosts memory, control blood sugar, has anticancer properties and many more. And its available easily -just soak in water overnight and boil in the morning and consume the water. Isn't it quite simple ? Do you know, it also helps in curing digestive problems ? Yes, there are plenty of reasons and that is why I am a fan of this. But not on regular basis - 2-3 times in a week is enough, that too in limited quantity. Because, there is a risk as well - it suppresses testosterone levels if consumed regularly or in large quantities - I don't want to miss all the fun.
And then my second regular detox therapy is Aloe Vera - in fact, what I consume is also full of energy as well - Dry dates with desi cow milk mixed with Aloe Vera. I am not sure, if you have seen this anywhere else - this is my discovery.
These dry dates are not very expensive as well, you just need to remember to soak them in hot milk over night. That makes it soft to eat. Else you cannot consume them at all. Take a large cup, put 5-6 dry dates and put some hot milk and leave it overnight. If its very hot climate (which can potentially damage the milk if kept outside), then you can also keep it in freeze, after a hour ( after the milk becomes cold).
Desi cow milk has been expensive a bit but you can manage with normal milk as well. We usually boil it a little longer to get more cream ( that is used to extract ghee), and it tastes better.
Then nothing fancy - put dates and hot milk in a cup.
The dates would come alive by morning. After burning all the fat playing football, I take one stem from the Aloe Vera plant and cut it and extract the gel.
And then I would just mix these gel pieces and eat them along with dates and drink the milk - the lady mixes them all and make a thick juice adding some more milk - that is the advantage of having a wife at home :)
This provides you all the energy to get super charged for the day and also helping you detox at the same time. I am sure, if you taste this once, you will get addicted. And probably you can skip the breakfast, if you feel its enough - I cannot miss those sweet potatoes kept ready by Mom.
And by the way it appears nature has been very kind on me providing a lot of Aloe Vera in just one pot. I am on a mission to eat them all and just replant one last small plant.
