You're curled up at home, craving a warm cup of tea as the rain pours outside. But before you brew the usual milk and sugar tea, pause for a moment. This monsoon season brings not only beauty but also a host of diseases. So, why not opt for a healthier alternative?
Choose a tea made from lemongrass and ginger cobs instead. Ginger, with its well-documented medicinal properties, is a staple in home remedies. It's a proven remedy for stomach ailments, coughs, inflammation, nausea, and even combats various viruses - all of which are particularly beneficial during the rainy season.
Lemongrass, too, boasts an array of medicinal properties, making it an excellent addition to your tea. Like ginger, it's effective in treating stomach ailments, fever, the common cold, aches, and pains. Plus, its mild astringent properties help kill germs, providing extra protection against monsoon-borne illnesses.
Other Benefits of Lemongrass and Ginger Tea
Digestive Comfort: Lemongrass helps calm the stomach, and ginger aids digestion. Together, they can relieve bloating and indigestion, which is especially helpful during the monsoon when our digestion can be sensitive.
Immune System Boost: Both lemongrass and ginger are packed with antioxidants that strengthen the immune system. Drinking this tea in the monsoon can help protect you from seasonal colds and infections.
Weight Management: Lemongrass and ginger can help boost your metabolism and reduce fat. During the monsoon, when activity levels might decrease, this tea can support healthy weight management.
Cholesterol Benefits: Some studies suggest that Lemongrass and ginger may help maintain healthy cholesterol levels, which is beneficial during the monsoon when comfort foods can be tempting.
Detoxification: Lemongrass acts as a natural diuretic, helping to flush out toxins, while ginger supports liver health. This is particularly useful in the monsoon to cleanse the body and stay healthy.
Stress Relief: The soothing scent and flavor of Lemongrass, combined with the calming effects of ginger, can help reduce stress and anxiety, which often spike during the gloomy monsoon season.
