Awaken Your Metabolism: Spices That Serve You Awaken Your Metabolism: Spices That Serve You “It’s not what you eat that counts, it’s what you digest.” When your digestive fire (agni) is imbalanced, energy and vitality are hard pressed to find their way to you. Agni is the driving force behind your metabolism. When agni is strong, food digests well and you feel light and healthy. When agni is weak, toxins build up and you feel heavy, sluggish, off. In Ayurveda, one of the fastest ways to balance your digestive fire is through spices! This is great news because nothing could be simpler than adding spices to your daily meals. Awakening your metabolism will mean something different for everyone. If your metabolism runs hot, fast, and acidic, you’ll need cooling spices. If your metabolism is too cold or slow, you’ll need warm and invigorating spices. Use the following Spices That Serve You Cheat Sheet to discover your digestive nature. And learn which spices to use to awaken your metabolism! Ayurveda Every Day With Talya Detox Your Body With Ayurveda Bootcamp, 2019 ©Talya Lutzker and www.talyaskitchen.com Your Mantra Today: In this moment, what do I need? Keep going back to self-love and self-care. Most of us don’t take the time and space to ask ourselves: What do I need right now? Ayurveda says, “anything can be poison, anything can be medicine.” It’s LISTENING to your body that’s the key. Vata Metabolism = fast. Elimination = poor. Vata digestion tends toward indigestion, gas, constipation. Pitta Metabolism = fast. Elimination = strong. Pitta digestion tends toward acidity, acid reflux, loose stool. Kapha Metabolism = slow. Elimination = steady. Kapha digestion tends toward bloating, fatigue, flatulence. Ayurveda Every Day With Talya Detox Your Body With Ayurveda Bootcamp, 2019 ©Talya Lutzker and www.talyaskitchen.com Most herbs and spices are great for Vata because of their warming qualities. However, too many pungent spices can be drying and over-stimulating over time. For Vata metabolism, use fresh herbs with spices whenever you can. Vata Reducing Spices: asafetida, basil, bay leaf, caraway seed, cardamom, fresh cilantro, cinnamon, clove, coriander, cumin, fennel seed, fresh garlic (cooked), ginger, marjoram, fresh mint, nutmeg, fresh rosemary, saffron, tamarind, thyme, turmeric, vanilla Vata Reducing Spice Mix V-K=P+ Preparation Time: 5 minutes Yield: 18 servings 2 teaspoons ground cumin 1 teaspoon ground turmeric Ayurveda Every Day With Talya Detox Your Body With Ayurveda Bootcamp, 2019 ©Talya Lutzker and www.talyaskitchen.com 1 teaspoon ground ginger ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg or cardamom Mix everything together in a clean, dry jar. This blend is warming, grounding, and calming. Mix ¼ teaspoon of this spice mix into steaming bowls of whole grains with cooked root vegetables and a Tablespoon of high-quality sesame oil or olive oil. You can also stir ¼ teaspoon into warm milk, with a bit of maple syrup and ghee. Most herbs and spices stimulate or aggravate Pitta. However, there is a not-so-short list of exceptions. For balancing Pitta heat, focus on fresh, green herbs such as mint, cilantro, and dill to flavor the bulk of your meals. Pitta can indulge in this following, pleasing list of spices. Pitta Reducing Spices: fresh basil, caraway seed, cardamom, fresh cilantro, Ceylon cinnamon, coriander, cumin, dill, fennel seed, fresh ginger, lavender flowers, lemongrass, mint, parsley, rose, saffron, tulsi, turmeric, vanilla Ayurveda Every Day With Talya Detox Your Body With Ayurveda Bootcamp, 2019 ©Talya Lutzker and www.talyaskitchen.com Pitta Reducing Spice Mix VPK- Preparation Time: 5 minutes Yield: 18 servings 2 teaspoons ground coriander 1 teaspoon whole fennel seed 1 teaspoon ground cardamom ½ teaspoon ground turmeric or mint leaf Mix everything together in a clean, dry jar.

Export is one source of foreign exchange earnings for the country. This study analyzes the competitiveness of Indonesian nutmeg in the world market. Measurement of competitiveness was conducted by looking at the comparative and competitive advantages nutmeg products in each of the main markets for export and comparison with competitors. The analytical method uses Revealed Comparative Advance (RCA) and Export Product Dynamic (EPD) in the period 2014-2018. The competitiveness analysis results show that nutmeg and nutmeg powder products have competitiveness in all export destination markets. Competitor countries, namely India, do not have competitiveness in the Dutch and Japanese markets. The nutmeg commodity has a competitive advantage with the trend and the share of exports that are still growing (fast-growing). However, nutmeg powder is no longer competitive in the export destination market. Active efforts to find new markets through market diversification while maintaining existing markets can be an option to increase Indonesian nutmeg exports. 1 Introduction Indonesia is one of the most reckoned nutmegs producing and exporting countries in the international world.

Essential oils are complex mixtures of volatile compounds that are obtained from botanical material, specifically from aromatic plants. Lamiaceae is one of the most important families in the production of essential oils, as it has both antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. The essential oils of Mentha (the Lamiaceae family) have been extensively studied for their biological actions. In this review, we report the antioxidant, antifungal, antibiofilm, and cytotoxic properties of Mentha spp. essential oils. The first objective is to provide comprehensive information about the use of essential oils in the treatment of fungal infections, or as antioxidants and integrative anticancer therapy. The second is to explore the evidence supporting its effectiveness in treating diseases without causing any serious adverse reactions. Keywords: essential oil; Mentha spp.; antioxidant; antifungal; antibiofilm; toxicity 1. Introduction Plant essential oils (EOs) are produced predominantly using steam distillation, but can also be generated using fermentation, crushing, extraction, hydrolysis, and airing [1].

  • Looking at Herbs and Spices
    OEB 59 – Plants and Human Affairs Lab 5: Spices and Essential Oils Objectives of this lab: 1) Connect commonly used herbs and spices to the plants and plant parts from which they are derived 2) Compare Old World versus New World herbs and spices 3) Learn about fun facts about allspice, peppercorns, cinnamon, mace, and nutmeg 4) Compare the aromas and therapeutic uses of essential oils from different species Part I: Looking at herbs and spices Herbs are usually aromatic leaves from temperate plants, while spices are aromatic fruits, flowers, bark, or other plant parts of tropical origin. Both are associated with mainly cooking, but also in medicine, as natural dyes, and in the perfume and cosmetic industries. Old World versus New World Herbs and spices from the Old World include: cloves, nutmeg, mace, peppercorns (green, black and white), mustards, cardamon, cinnamon, star anise, turmeric, dill, chervil, celery seed, caraway, cumin, anise, peppermint, spearmint, marjoram, oregano, and thyme. Herbs and spices from the New World include: vanilla, allspice, pink pepper, and chili pepper. TO DO: What part of the plant do particular herbs and spices come from? Take a look at the herbs and spices on display, and answer the following four questions: (1) Name four herbs or spices derived from flowers, seeds, or fruits (2) Name two herbs or spices derived from leaves (3) Name one herb or spice derived from bark (4) Name one herb or spice derived from roots (5) What part of which plant species is used to obtain ginger? History of spices "No evidence is available of how primitive humans actually discovered herbs and spices, but we can assume that they were attracted to some of the pleasant aromas of these plants and found different uses for them.

  • Nutmeg, Myristica Fragrans Tips
    Recipes Nutmeg, Myristica fragrans Tips: • Grate nutmeg with a nutmeg grater or the fines blade of a box grater just before using for best flavor. • Add ground nutmeg towards the end of cooking because heat will diminish the flavor. • To test a whole nutmeg for freshness, insert a needle approximately 1 centimeter into the whole nut. A tiny drop of oil will seep out if the nut is fresh. • Store whole nutmegs, tightly sealed in a cool, dark location.
