Weight Loss Tea – 100g

Six spices go into this: black cumin, sprouted fenugreek, turmeric, omam, dry ginger and cardamom. Each of them has a long history in Tamil kitchens as a digestive, and fenugreek in particular is sprouted before drying, which is a step most commercial blends skip.

To prepare: mix one spoon into a cup of water, boil it well, and drink it warm. The label suggests taking it at night before bed.

A word on the name: this is a traditional spice infusion, not a weight loss treatment, and it will not do the work of eating well and moving regularly. If you are pregnant, or taking medication – fenugreek and turmeric both interact with some prescriptions – please check with your doctor.
