Every morning on my porridge or brown rice I flavour my breakfast with a mixture of spices, turmeric, hot chilli, ginger, cloves, cinnamon and occasionally nutmeg. A small amount of honey was used before I decided to attack Candida.
This concoction is to help with osteoarthritis using Ayurvedic medicine ideas.
Be careful with the hot chilli quantity.
Didn’t realise it would have other benefits
