If you were to prepare anything with potato you would never miss garlic going into it.
If you were preparing something too spicy tamarind or tomatoes goes in to balance.
Turmeric is a must in all our recipes, I often wonder how did our forefathers ever know that Turmeric has the most health benefits than any other herb.
A recent study says that Indians are off the radar of colon cancer- main reason to this is turmeric.
We take ginger, garlic, cardamom, cinnamon and even the most popular Garcinia in our daily diets.
From the very common black paper to our exotic cardamom we add health benefits to every food we eat.
It’s not just The flavors or the aroma that is increased by hurts a lot of other benefits are added too.

However, a little research shows that there is a lot of weight loss properties to fennel, and more importantly it reduces flatulence.
Flatulence is one main reason for many people, even though they do not have muscle mass on their stomach, gas developed in it makes the tummy look bloated.
In fact Fennel tea is used to treat IBS- Irritable Bowel Syndrome.
