With the previous newsletter titled "Can pleasure and health coexist?" (if you missed it, you can read it by clicking here) we talked about the importance of varying meals to have a healthy, enjoyable, and sustainable diet.
Sometimes, varying meals can be difficult, and we tend to eat the recipes we know best. The reasons can be various: we know their timing, the steps, and we are sure whether they are appreciated by our precious diners (our family) or not.
In this newsletter, we want to give you some small advice that can make a difference and make everything... simpler.
As you know, we like to share, so here is the list of our most recent combinations:
Let's look at some interesting facts together!
Cumin has excellent digestive properties, helping to prevent issues like bloating and gas. It's also a good source of iron and is rich in antioxidants.
Curry, a blend of spices, is known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, mainly due to curcumin, an active compound in turmeric. It can improve heart health and support brain function.
Tarragon is an aromatic herb that's a source of minerals like potassium and manganese. Besides aiding digestion and improving appetite, it's also a natural antiseptic useful against sore throats and toothaches.
Cinnamon is valued for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It can help reduce gastrointestinal symptoms, like irritable bowel syndrome, alleviate menstrual pains, and serve a neuroprotective function.
The world of spices and aromatic herbs is truly fascinating. For this reason, we want to suggest a beautiful book on this topic.
