Health truly is wealth

Friends,

Every year we make a resolution because beginning of a new year is synonymous with resolutions, a time when we reflect on our aspirations for wealth, ambition, love, and peace.

However, amidst these desires, it is crucial not to overlook the most fundamental aspect that enables us to achieve all of these goals – our health.

Yes, friends, Health is wealth.

Health encompasses physical, mental, and emotional well-being, and understanding their interconnectedness is vital. Taking a holistic approach to health empowers us to embrace various practices that enhance and internalize our well-being.

I would like to explore different ways to support our health, leveraging the power of nature’s ingredients. Let us starts now..

Harnessing the Power of Curcumin (Haldi)

Nature’s healing properties are abundant, and curcumin, commonly known as haldi or turmeric, stands out as one of the most potent anti-inflammatory elements. Including curcumin in our daily routine can provide significant benefits for our well-being.

Turmeric has been used for centuries in traditional medicine and is known to alleviate inflammation, improve digestion, and support immune function.

Incorporating this golden spice into our meals, smoothies, or teas can be a simple and effective way to harness its healing potential.

Unleashing the Antioxidant Spice Mix

Combining equal quantities of cinnamon, sumac, cloves, and turmeric powders creates a powerful antioxidant spice mix. Rich in antioxidants, this blend possesses a high ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) value, indicating its ability to scavenge free radicals and protect against cancer and inflammatory conditions.

Consuming a teaspoon of this spice mix twice a day with hot water can assist in detoxification and support overall health.

Invigorating the Lemon-ACV-Amla Mix:

The combination of lemon, apple cider vinegar (ACV), and amla (Indian gooseberry) offers a potent elixir brimming with health benefits. A teaspoon of ACV, along with two teaspoons each of lemon and amla juice mixed in a glass of water, provides a refreshing drink packed with vitamin C, alkalinity, and powerful antioxidants.

Vitamin C bolsters the immune system, while the alkalinity promotes a balanced internal environment. Regular consumption of this mix can invigorate your body and enhance overall well-being.

Embracing the Ginger-Garlic Duo

Garlic and ginger, two common kitchen ingredients, possess remarkable anti-inflammatory properties. Garlic contains allicin, an organosulfur compound known for its anti-inflammatory effects on both the brain and the heart. Ginger, on the other hand, is a well-known spice that soothes inflammation and supports digestion.

Preparing a concoction of boiled ginger water and crushed garlic soaked in water overnight can harness the benefits of these two stellar ingredients. This infusion can be consumed to promote overall health, reduce inflammation, and aid digestion.

Cultivating Fermented Vegetables

Embracing the tradition of fermented vegetables provides a reliable means of enhancing gut health. Naturally fermented vegetables, such as pickles or liquid ferments like beet or carrot kvass, contain beneficial bacteria that strengthen the gut’s microbiome.

These bacteria aid in detoxification, combatting harmful organisms, and boosting overall digestive health. Preparing these fermented delicacies at home, using traditional methods passed down through generations, ensures their freshness and purity.

Seek the wisdom of our elders, particularly grandparents or grand-aunts, to learn the intricate details of their fermentation techniques. Incorporating fermented vegetables into our daily diet supports the cultivation of a robust gut ecosystem, enabling us to remove toxins and promote overall well-being.

Friends,

In the pursuit of wealth, ambition, love, and peace, we must not overlook the foundation upon which these aspirations stand – our health. Adopting a holistic approach to well-being empowers us to consider the interplay between physical, mental, and emotional aspects of our lives.

By incorporating natural ingredients like curcumin, antioxidant spice mixes, lemon-ACV-amla mixes, the ginger-garlic duo, and fermented vegetables into our routines, we take crucial steps towards nurturing our health.

Let us embrace these practices, recognizing that health truly is wealth, as it forms the bedrock upon which we can achieve all other aspirations and lead a fulfilling and purposeful life.
