• Keeping the skin healthy.
• Keeps us energetic.
• Boost metabolism.
• Helps with diarrhoea.
• Improves cardiac health

All you need to do is soak 1 tablespoon of Cumin in a glass of water(or you can make more) and soak it overnight. Drink this first thing in the morning. If you have a digestive issue, you can also drink it throughout the day. You can also eat that soaked cumin.
