Kalonji water stimulates the secretion of digestive enzymes and helps soothe bloating, gas, and indigestion. Its carminative properties make it a go-to remedy in natural medicine systems for gut-related issues.
How to make kalonji water at home
Ingredients:
1 teaspoon whole kalonji seeds
1 glass (250 ml) lukewarm water
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp honey
Soak 1 teaspoon of kalonji seeds in water overnight.
In the morning, strain the water and drink it on an empty stomach.
You can also chew the soaked seeds if desired for additional fiber and nutrients.
Make sure you avoid boiling the seeds, as high heat can destroy thymoquinone and reduce its potency. Stick to lukewarm or room temperature water.
