The one morning ritual you shouldn’t ignore

What’s your morning ritual like? If your mornings are all about having a quick shower, grabbing a quick bite and rushing quickly out of home without having time for anything else, you need to bring in some change. Your health can’t be secondary, and you need to start taking care of it today. But we know, that not all of us have all the time in the world. That’s why you need to adopt just a few good habits to bring about a positive effect. Introducing health tonics.

Health tonics are loaded with essential nutrients that work wonders in taking care of your health and keeping you away from infections. They can be easily made at home without much effort by using readily available fruits, spices, etc.

Here are some healthy tonics you could start drinking in the morning:

1. Lemon Juice with Honey

Most dieticians recommend starting your morning with a glass of lemon juice and honey on an empty stomach. These ingredients help in removing toxins from the body and improving your immunity. I add turmeric, ginger and a pinch of black pepper.

Even Ayurveda stands by this remedy to be a great morning health tonic. Take one glass of lukewarm water and add the juice of half a lemon and one teaspoon of honey to it. Drink it immediately.

2. Cumin Seed Water

If you frequently suffer from digestion problems, then you need to start drinking cumin seed water in the morning. Cumin seeds are known for their digestion-boosting properties, and for relieving one from acidity and bloating. Add one teaspoon of cumin seeds to one cup of water and bring it to a boil. Allow it to cool and then drink it on an empty stomach.

3. Apple Cider Vinegar

Touted to be a miracle drink, almost every health enthusiast today gushes about the many health-benefiting properties of apple cider vinegar. ACV is known to aid in weight loss, lower bad cholesterol, improve digestion and balance the pH of the skin. Add one teaspoon of ACV to warm water, add a pinch of cinnamon and one tablespoon of honey and drink up.

4. Carom Seed Water

Carom seeds are loaded with therapeutic properties due to the presence of an essential oil called thymol that helps in improving digestion, promoting weight loss and treating acidity. Add half a teaspoon of ajwain to one cup of water and bring it to a boil. Let it then cool to infuse the flavour.

Pick any of these health tonics that can be easily made at home and notice the difference.
