Antioxident Power With Cumin! Did You Know?

Did you know that bitter cumin--a natural substance long used in ayurveda, the traditional medicine of India--may serve as a rich source of antioxidants and is often used to alleviate fever, treat hyperglycemia, and reduce pain?
Bitter cumin extract can help knock out free radicals and defend against oxidative stress (a destructive biological process linked to cancer, diabetes, heart disease, Alzheimer's disease, and stroke).
Previously published studies suggest that several ayurvedic herbs may also be packed with antioxidants. Antioxidant-rich guggul, for instance, may help keep cholesterol in check. Another ayurvedic herb high in antioxidants, fenugreek may help fight insulin resistance and aid in diabetes control.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask! Thanks for looking! God Bless, Simone :)
