Herbal sprinkles are one of the simplest and most satisfying herbal kitchen staples that you can use to incorporate more herbs into your meals. We always have Digestive Support Sprinkle to put on toast, hot cereals, or to mix into yogurt.

The digestive support herbs are an incredible resource for daily health and well-being, as they help us to more efficiently digest the nutrients in our food.

This easy Digestive Support Sprinkle recipe comes from my book, The Herbal Kitchen. Let’s take a closer look at what it contains…

 

digestive support sprinkle: flax seeds

Flax Seeds

Flax seeds are highly nutritious and a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, soluble fiber, lignans, and antioxidants. Their mucilaginous quality makes them nourishing and helps to soothe and heal the digestive tract. Flax seeds have been used to relieve constipation and may help lower total cholesterol. This Digestive Support Sprinkle features ground flax, which is easier to digest than whole seeds.

 

digestive support sprinkle: cinnamon

Cinnamon

Cinnamon aids in digesting desserts, smoothies, and meals that contain grains and cold dairy such as milk, yogurt, and ice cream. This energizing spice increases warmth and circulation and supports efficient digestion of fats and cold foods. It also helps counteract the congestion that can accompany dairy foods.

 

digestive support sprinkle: ginger

Ginger

Ginger stimulates digestion, supports the pancreas, dispels gas, and settles an upset stomach. It also gets rid of mucus congestion, so any time you have some mucus sneaking up on you, use a ginger sprinkle on your morning foods. If you are worried about diabetes, add ginger to your foods to enhance pancreatic function.

 

digestive support sprinkle: cardamom

Cardamom

Cardamom is carminative, which means it increases the flow of oxygen and blood to the digestive tract. If you eat well but experience gas and bloating, you aren’t digesting well. Cardamom helps relieve gas and indigestion and assists you in converting food into something your body can use. It helps with irritable bowel problems and is restorative to the digestive tract.

Whenever I add the Digestive Support Sprinkle to my cooking, I think of the prevention and healing it is providing my family. Your thoughts can potentiate the actions of herbs. The next time you add spices to your food, visualize your family in your mind’s eye and imagine them healthy and happy.
