Series - Home Remedy #7 - For Appetite Loss (Anorexia)


Mix half teaspoon each of carom seeds (ajwain), fennel seeds (saunf), dried ginger powder (sonth), salt and black cumin seeds (shah jeera). Swallow about 3/4 teaspoon of this mixture with water 2 - 3 times a day.
Take 2 teaspoon of amla juice and mix it with 2 teaspoons honey and 2 teaspoons lime juice. Add 1 cup water and drink on an empty stomach every morning. To take out juice from fresh amla, remove seeds from fresh amla and grind the pulp into a fine paste. Tie it in a muslin cloth and squeeze out the juice. Whenever fresh fruits are not available, dried amla can be used. Soak 1 tablespoon of dried amla at night in a cup of water. Strain it the next morning. Add 1/8 teaspoon black pepper powder (kali mirch) and 2 teaspoon lime juice. Dilute it if necessary with water and drink every morning regularly on an empty stomach.
Take ½ teaspoon black pepper powder (kali mirchi) and 1 tablespoon jaggery powder (shakkar) mixed together.
Cut 1” piece ginger (adrak) into small pieces. Add 1.5 cups of water. Boil. Simmer for 2 – 3 minutes. Add milk and sugar to take, and take it frequently like tea.
