About the Recipe

This anti-ama formula is an Ayurvedic digestive remedy designed to help reduce ama, the toxic buildup that forms when digestion is weak.

In Ayurvedic philosophy, strong digestion is the foundation of health, while ama can contribute to sluggishness and imbalance.

Warming ingredients and digestive spices are traditionally used to stimulate agni (digestive fire) and help the body process food more effectively.

This simple preparation supports the body’s natural ability to clear toxins and restore digestive balance.

Ingredients

1 Tbsp. ginger powder
1 Tbsp. coriander powder
1 Tbsp. cumin powder
2 Tbsp. fennel powder
2 Tbsp. dry mint powder (if the mint is flakes, make sure to grind it into powder)

Preparation

Mix the above ingredients together and place in a glass jar to use over several days.

Add 1 teaspoon of the above mixture to 1/2 cup of hot water and drink after lunch and dinner
