HERBS THAT AID AND PROMOTE DIGESTION

Adding herbs into our meals daily can help sort out those pesky digestive issues. Take a look.

1. Ginger promotes digestion by stimulating saliva.

2. Garlic has antiviral and antimicrobial properties that help protect gut immunity. 

3. Cumin helps reduce heartburn and is frequently used as a digestive aid. 

4. Cinnamon contains phytochemicals which specifically inhibit candida, or yeast, overgrowth. Cinnamon is a known carminative, meaning it helps relieve excess gas. 

Other beneficial herbs and spices include cardamom, black pepper, horseradish, oregano, thyme and sage.
