Add more beets to your diet. Beets are loaded with betalaine, a nutrient responsible for protecting cells, enzymes, and proteins from environmental stress.

Ayurvedic Connection

Now that I’m going deep into my Ayurvedic studies (I’m in my last semester of the first year of a doctoral program), I’ve become intensely interested in all things Ayurveda. Cumin one of them!

In Sanskrit, cumin is jiraka. Jira roughly translates to “that which helps digestion” and Ayurveda considers cumin a great digestive tonic that helps dispel gas, eliminate toxins, is a mild laxative, and is anti-inflammatory. Cumin is believed to kindle agni, or digestive fire, and improve the absorption of minerals in the intestines.
