Al Attar’s Cumin & Lemon Tea
Today I am going to be reviewing a product which comes all the way from the Arab country of Jordan, in Southwest Asia.
Al Attar’s Cumin & Lemon Tea
The history of tea spreads across multiple cultures over the span of thousands of years. Tea originated in southwest China as a medicinal drink.
After water, Tea is the most widely consumed drink in the world. On any given day, over 150 million Americans are drinking tea.
The tea is made up of cumin, citric acid and salt.
Cumin is a flowering plant, its seeds – each one contained within a fruit, which is dried – are used in the cuisines of many cultures in both whole and ground form.
Modern studies have confirmed some of the health benefits cumin is traditionally known for, including promoting digestion and reducing food-borne infections.
Cumin contains antioxidants and is a rich source of Iron.
Consuming cumin tea might help relieve the signs of the flu and common cold. However, you need to consume the tea regularly throughout the day for faster healing.
Research has also revealed some new benefits, such as promoting weight loss, balancing blood sugar and lowering cholesterol.
This is not a regular tea that you drink with sugar and have cookies on the side.
It is a one-of-a-kind tea which has a salty and slightly sour taste. It is more like a broth than a traditional tea.
It’s perfect for warming you up on cold days and great at settling the stomach.
So next time the first symptoms of a cold start showing, boil yourself a cup of water and drop a bag of this medicinal wonder and you may stop the cold before it messes with the way you feel.
