Coffee with cardamom & cinnamon

Hi ,

Few months ago I  wrote a post what I drink instead of coffee https://vikki2603.blogspot.com/2016/10/healthy-coffee-alternative.html , but today I have to confess  few weeks ago I started to drink coffee again ( not everyday) but every here and there . I tried green tea , mate tea ,matcha tea, non caffeine coffee  ( still I think these alternative are great )but I really like to start my day  with cup of coffee ( but before drinking coffee I always drink glass of water with lemon , never drink coffee on an empty stomach) .

Difference between now and old days is before I didn't bother what type of coffee I drunk -normally it was  any instant coffee , now I only drink organic  brewed coffee and I always  add some cinnamon and  1 seed of cardamom - why -? (  many of the vitamins and essential oils in cardamom act as antioxidants, cleaning up free radicals and resisting cellular aging. Like ginger and turmeric, its relatives, cardamom has some anti-inflammatory properties that limit pain and swelling, especially in mucus membranes, the mouth, and throat.Cardamom is related to ginger and can be used in much the same way to counteract digestive problems. Use it to combat nausea, acidity, bloating, gas, heartburn, loss of appetite, constipation, and much more).

And you ? how do you like to drink your coffee?.

Drinking water with Himalayan salt

2 months ago I heart that drinking water with Himalayan salt it is very good for our health. I was under the impression that salt was something to be avoided as much as possible. I was more curious how and why use Himalayan salt  and started research internet about this subject and this is information what I found out :

Himalayan salt is mined from ancient sea beds, so it is pure from modern environmental toxins. It provides a whopping 84 trace minerals. Pink salt has numerous benefits from helping the body detoxify to boosting energy to improving digestion to promoting healthy hair, skin, and balanced hormones .Additionally, the consumption of Himalayan salt water also helps in regulating hydration and also improves our digestion process , helps in preventing muscle cramps and help in lowering blood pressure.The minerals contained in the Himalayan salt water helps in strengthening the body. Such minerals are necessary in maintaining strong connective tissues and bones. They are also vital for proper blood circulation and muscle regeneration.

After all information I have read about how healthy it is drinking water with a Himalayan salt  I decided to drink it too - how ? I  put a pinch of salt into my glass of water. At the beginning it was hard for me to used to salty taste of water but now it is much better and don't taste any salt . 

Are you going to give Himalayan pink salt a try?
