CCF tea, Cumin Coriander and Fennel Tea is commonly used in Ayurvedic medicine to support detox and a healthy digestion. We drink this tea frequently during my seasonal ayurvedic cleanses but it’s also perfect for anytime of the year. Pair it with Ayurvedic Kitchari for an easy to digest and detoxifying meal!
Here’s a breakdown of just some of the medicinal benefits of the seeds used in CCF tea:
Cumin:
- Helps relieve indigestion
- Relieves gas
- Flushes out toxins (referred to as ama in ayurveda)
- Increases digestive strength
Coriander:
- Improves digestive strength
- Relieves gas
- Calms muscle spasms
- Reduces inflammation
Fennel:
- Strengthens digestive fire
- Helps alleviate IBS
- Relieves gas
- Burns fat
So to sum it up, CCF tea supports digestion, decreases gas, increases metabolism and your bodies ability to burn fat. So my question is why would you not drink this Ayurvedic detox tea?
